Fantastic topic for you to cover atm Ben, very appropriate for Australia, its dry here in Qld. Even with wetting agent down, were watering 3 times per week.

My first year using WA and impressed, I’m really old school and in past thought they be a waste of money, I’m in SA so been cooler here but dry and have most probably only watered 4-5 and that’s mostly to add product. Screwdriver goes all the way in like it’s butter 👍🏻

Yo mate, would you recommend getting a wetting agent down on top of the sand after a reno? I went pretty thick on the sand this year to fix the levels and worried it's going to get a bit dry.

Thanks for your tips... gonna get some of your product recommended for wetting agent - can you mix this with an application of Primo Maxx? I need to spray this also and thought might hit it with both. What products should you avoid mixing when spraying the lawn?? Thanks!

Run the pint glass test on the spots again with just water in both. Should hopefully see a massive difference in rates the second time. Maybe a little further apart so the wetting agent doesn't help the regular water test.

Technically, the grass was hydrophobic, thats why it ran in streams over the turf surface. The wetting agent helped break that initial layer caused by the turf, not saying the soil wasn't though

Would love to water that amount but unfortunately around Perth (unless you have a bore) your’e restricted to twice a week at approx 12 mins each time, and only once a day (usually early mornings best so it gets to the roots before they dry out). If you do more you risk a visit from the Ranger and a fine.
