If you’re watering your lawn during this UK dry spell, you might actually be doing more harm than good.

In this video, I’ll show you exactly how to water your lawn properly — when to water, how long to water for, and the biggest mistakes to avoid.

The key is simple: water less often, but water deeply. That’s what builds stronger roots and a lawn that can handle dry weather.

I’ll also cover:
* How often to water your lawn in dry weather
* Why watering every day weakens your grass
* How soil type affects watering (clay vs sandy soil)
* How to tell when your lawn actually needs water

If you want an easy way to water evenly, I’ve linked the soaker hose I use below.

Don’t stress — grass is tougher than you think. Get the basics right, and your lawn will bounce back.
