Bonjour is a voice recognition alarm system that hopes cool technology can change that. Simply tell Bonjour what time you want to wake up and what youâd like to hear in the morning: weather, your calendar, traffic or news are all available in response to your verbal commands.
If you live in a humid climate, you should water your lawn between 10:00 PM and 6:00 AM for optimum results. In hot, arid climates, it's best to water lawns in the still hours of the early morning, before sunrise. This will help reduce the amount of water that would otherwise be lost to daytime evaporation and winds.
The best time to water is early morning, when the sun starts to rise. You lose some water to evaporation in the middle of the day. And watering at night leaves the grass wet too long, which can cause fungus and other diseases in the summer. Give your lawn 3/8 in. of water three times a week. Calculate the amount of time it takes your sprinkler to dispense that much water (Photo 5). Set a timer (sold at home centers and lawn and garden centers) on your hose spigot so you won't have to watch the clock (Photo 6).
