Here is how one reference describes it [1]: Sea-floor spreading is driven by crust formation along the mid-ocean ridges, meandering undersea mountain ranges that span Earth like the seams of a baseball. Oceanic crust is continually produced by magma welling up along the centerlines of the mid-ocean ridges.
Watering the grass every single day for 15 minutes. This turns the lawn into a shallow-rooted water junkie that demands a water fix every day just to soldier on. Instead of watering shallowly every day for 15 minutes, water deeply once a week for an hour or so (or how ever long it takes to apply an inch of water). Your lawn will be healthier and more drought-tolerant.
To measure how much water your sprinkler system puts out in a set amount of time, place tuna cans, rain gauges or straight-sided coffee cans around your lawn. Turn on your sprinkler and let it run for 15 minutes. After turning off the sprinkler, use a ruler to measure the depth of the water collected in your cans.If it's 1/4 inch, you need to run the sprinkler twice as long, or 30 minutes, to spread 1/2 inch of water on your lawn.ost lawns need at least 1 inch of water per week, so if you plan to water twice a week, you must know how long it takes to spread 1/2 inch of water over your lawn.
