![]() ![]() Grass roots can reach greater depths in properly prepared soil (by rototilling deeply). If you have an automatic irrigation system that runs regularly and keeps the soil moist, it would be wise to skip one or two irrigations.įrom this, don't think that four inches is the ideal depth of irrigation. If the soil is moist to a depth of at least four inches, you can dispense with irrigation for that day. If the soil is moist six or more inches deep, the probe will penetrate the soil easily to the depth of the moist soil. Use a long screw driver, shovel, or other metal probe to test soil for soil moisture. You should check the depth of moist soil to determine if you need to irrigate. This will be worse if the ground is not level and the water easily runs off. If the rain falls rapidly and run-off occurs, then there was little water absorbed into the soil. Whether or not you need to continue to irrigate your lawn depends on how much water the soil in your lawn has absorbed. Can I stop watering my lawn at least for a week or so?

Recommended approachesĭo not attempt to undertake control of this species on Aotea / Great Barrier Island group. Encourage natural regeneration of native plants or replant treated areas where possible after 2-3 treatments to establish dense ground cover and minimise reinvasion. Control Site managementįollow up treated areas 3 times per year. May alter plant community composition and facilitate exotic plant invasions. Impact on environmentįorms dense stands, reducing native vegetation cover. Seeds dispersed by gravity and soil movement. If you see Spanish broom anywhere on Aotea / Great Barrier Island group, please report it to Auckland Council at Habitatsĭisturbed sites, hill country, pasture, cliffs, roadsides, riparian margins. ![]()
