How much water is to much? I have a bent grass green approx 1800 sq ft. putting service,2400 sq ft with aprons. It is a crowned green with run off ability on all sides. it has a great slope from back to front and the other 3 sides are elevated approx. 3-1/2' I did not mix any peat moss into my root zone but i do have approx 6-8" of sand.
I have 4 popup sprinklers on timers that water a 1/2 hour each in the morning every day and i just wanted any help on how much water water is enough. I live in southern illinois and this is the second full summer for my green.
