* Warm water absorbs better: Warm water is absorbed more readily by the roots of the grass, allowing for better hydration.
* Stimulates growth: Warm water encourages root growth and overall plant activity, leading to healthier and more vigorous grass.
* Avoids shock: Cold water can shock the roots and hinder their ability to absorb nutrients.
Important Considerations:
* Temperature: The ideal water temperature for grass growth is between 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit (15-21 degrees Celsius).
* Timing: Watering in the early morning or late evening is best to minimize evaporation.
* Soil Type: Different soil types have different water retention abilities. Sandy soils need more frequent watering than clay soils.
In Summary: While warm water is generally the best, the most important factor is providing your grass with consistent and sufficient hydration.
