field maintenance

Best time to water it is in the evening, you want it dry before the sun goes down. If you water it in the morning the sun can scorch it if puddles are left. If you water it late at night you can get mold. You want to try to water it ever 3 days for about 15 minutes, this will force the roots to grow deeper and you will have a fuller, darker field. Caution, this is what we do in California and it works great. No idea if this would work in Ten.

i would suggest you using the resources you have in your area. Check with the local golf courses and talk with their grounds crew. I have received excellent advice on grass maintenance from several guys, one of which even came out and walked me through several ways to improve our field.

It also depends on whether you want a slow or fast field. A few months before the season starts we water as little as we can as coach likes a fast infield. In the summer, we green it up and take care of the weeds.
