Of Society and Civilisation. Great part of that order which reigns among mankind is not the effect of government. It has its origin in the principles of society and the natural constitution of man. It existed prior to government, and would exist if the formality of government was abolished.
Run your sprinkler and see how long it takes to get a half inch of water in the can â just like a rain gauge. Usually itâs about 30 minutes. So 20 minutes, 3 times per week will get an inch of water on your lawn, and 30 minutes 3 times per week will get 1 Â½â down. Bear in mind that during extreme heat, you will need to water more, due to evaporation and heat stress on the grass. Water deeply 2-3 times per week, rather than daily.

Tuna fish or cat food cans work really well. Run your watering system for 20 minutes. Measure how much water you have in the containers.
