Maintaining a beautiful lawn in summer can be quite a challenge. High temperatures and occasional rainfall affect the turf a lot. So what tactic will work best here? First of all, we do not mow the lawn too low, we also try to keep large intervals between waterings. The lawn is best watered in the morning - the grass will dry out during the day and lose less moisture. The composition of the lawn mixture plays an important role. For example, in areas with little rainfall, the mixture should be dominated by fescue. This deep-rooted species can cope better with water shortage than other grasses.
For each irrigation, the lawn should receive 10-15 liters of water per square meter. Water rationing will be facilitated by a rain gauge placed next to the sprinkler. One line on the tank scale corresponds to one liter per square meter of lawn. In grass, as with other garden plants, less frequent but abundant watering contributes to better rooting.
Smart watering - sprinklers
There are various types of sprinklers available on the market, which differ basically in terms of construction, and therefore also their purpose.Oscillating sprinklers are especially recommended for lawns,they evenly irrigate square or rectangular surfaces. The range of sprinkling can be adjusted. Swinging sprinklers are very useful in larger fields of vegetables. 
The Fiskars water saving sprinkler reduces the water column in the middle position and thus reduces water consumption by up to 20%.
Theimpulse (pulsating) sprinkleris designed for large areas up to 500 m2, recognizable by its characteristic sound. Single large plants can be irrigated with misting nozzles. Drip heads that deliver small amounts of water to the roots are even more efficient. 
On / Off Fiskars circular pulse sprinkler covers a segment of a circle or its entire surface up to 360 o
Spray guns are the most universal.The water stream can be regulated in several ranges, therefore they are also suitable for washing terrace floors or washing a car. What types of streams can be set in them: spray (universal for watering plants, shrubs and beds, drizzle (for irrigating delicate plantings), flat (strong stream, just right for filling watering cans and buckets), sprinkling (for washing cars, terraces and other surfaces), spot (powerful spray for cleaning garden tools and dirty surfaces).
FiberComp ™ The Fiskars multi spray gun allows you to choose the spray type: fine drizzle, spray, flat spray, spray or spot spray.
Smart Watering - Drivers
The latest technologies offer opportunities that you could only dream of in the past. They not only water the garden and mow the grass, but also watch over the entire property. If we are going on vacation and do not want to worry about the lawn, plants in the house and garden, let's think about choosing professional irrigation equipment. Drivers are the perfect solution. Together with the sprinklers, they form an irreplaceable duo that will work well in every household. A typical trawnik needs about 25 mm of water per week(this value may vary depending on the ambient temperature). Other plants, such as seasonal flowers, also require frequent watering on hot days. The controllers are programmed quickly and intuitively, setting the beginning, frequency and duration of the process.The owner of the garden decides how often and how long the plants should be irrigated by entering appropriate information into the device. 
Fiskars irrigation controllers are the best time and water saving devices in your garden.
Smart watering - drip lines
Small area irrigation systems are more effective because they bring the water exactly where it needs to be. As a result, water is not wasted and the plants are thoroughly watered.This is how they work, among others drip lines.Such systems work very well for irrigating greenhouse crops and vegetable gardens. Perforated underground watering is practically lossless and equipped with a self-cleaning system that protects against root growth. 
Watering directly to the root system uses up to 70% less water compared to traditional sprinklers, and also reduces water loss due to evaporation, splashing and outflow of water beyond the reach of the roots.The photo shows the Fiskars irrigation hose.
Wise watering of balcony crates
On strongly sunny balconies and terraces, plants protect themselves from overheating by transpiring water through the leaves. In addition, there is evaporation of water from the substrate. All this together means that plants often require watering two or even three times a day, especially when grown in small containers.Systems using drippers integrated with humidity sensorsmeasuring the suction force of the soil or substrate are the optimal solution. Their main part is a ceramic cone that dries and soaks together with the substrate. For larger containers, several dispensers with deeper sensors can be installed, which allows the suction force to be measured directly in the area of the root system.Water can be supplied directly from the water supplyor from tanks. 
The installation of the Fiskars tap connector is child&39;s play - no need to call specialists. We disconnect the hose by pressing two buttons. Smart solution.
GOOD TO KNOW
1. Before the holiday, move the pots with plants to a shaded place that will protect them from the harsh sun.
2. Apply the funnel from the bottle. Fill a plastic soda bottle with water and screw the cap. Make holes in the cap and press the bottle with the spout to the ground. The water will drain slowly to ensure that the substrate is slightly moistened.
3. Use pots with the so-called tray. Then we can pour water into a larger pot.
The adjustable Fiskars spray lance allows you to water pots hanging and standing in hard-to-reach places, range 64 cm.
