Water can make or break a lawn this time of year.
With March rains and thawing soil, too much moisture can be just as damaging as too little.
Today is World Water Day; a great time for a reminder that healthy landscapes don’t just receive water — they manage it.
When soil stays too wet:
• Roots struggle for oxygen
• Compaction worsens
• Drainage problems become visible
• Turf becomes thin and stressed later
And the mistake we see most?
Homeowners turn irrigation back on too early.
Right now, most lawns in Kansas City don’t need supplemental watering. They need proper drainage and balanced soil conditions.
If you’re noticing pooling, runoff, or lingering wet spots, this is the time to address it — before summer heat exposes the weakness.
