How Much Should I Water? Obviously, this depends on the season, the grass type, and the soil type. A general rule of thumb is that your lawn should receive at least 1 inch of water per week. However, how often you water also depends on how you want you lawn to look.
Watering the grass in high wind can cause the grass to dry before the water penetrates the soil. For a green lawn, water your grass until the water penetrates at least 6 inches (15.24 cm) deep into the soil. Make watering the grass part of your lawn care during the summer. You may need to water the yard at additional times to prevent the grass from drying out. Grass needs to be watered about one inch per week.
