is this lawn watering recommendation for real? #870050

Asked May 25, 2024, 11:31 AM EDT

reading the june garden calendar, it seems to recommend watering lawns shallowly and frequently. this goes against all lawn watering advice i've read over the last ten years that says to water deeply and infrequently. do you stick by this plan?
