The fresh water supply in our country is a severe problem.  Most of the population wastes too much water.  Except for air we breathe, water is the single most important element in our lives.  It's too precious to waste.  Nearly 97% of the world’s water is salty or otherwise undrinkable. Another 2% is locked in ice caps and glaciers. That leaves just 1% for all of humanity’s needs all its agricultural, manufacturing, community, and personal household needs.  We drink very little of our drinking water. Less than 1% of the treated water produced by water utilities is actually consumed. The rest goes on lawns, in washing machines, and down toilets and drains.  Typically, at least 50% of water consumed by households is used outdoors.

Depending on type of soil, most vegetable gardens and flower gardens need 1-2 inches of water/week. For sandy and clay soils, watering should occur every 2-3 days for 5 min. For organic sandy loam (40% organic, 40% garden sand, 20% loam) watering should occur 1-2 times a week. Too much water causes root rot and other plant diseases. Applying proper fertilizer to the lawn at the proper time and in the proper amount can save time, money, and work through reduced moving and watering. Fertilizers also can be a major source of pollution of streams and ground water if excessive amounts are applied. Different grasses need different amounts of water.  Therefore the important characteristics that are concentrated on here are rain, soil moisture or ground water levels, fertilizing, and over and under watering of grass/plants.

Businesses shouldn't have to worry about the correct amount of water or fertilizer they need to keep their curb appeal or to keep their golf courses looking great.  We feel that the sprinkler system should be concerned about all aspects of your lawn needs.  This is where the intelligent sprinkler comes in.  We want to take your business, golf course, or anywhere where there is a need, to the next level of lawn care.  The intelligent sprinkler will calculate the amount of water and fertilizer to be distributed.  It will break your areas into zones that are programmed with a description of your soil type, plant and or grass types.  Samples are taken at each zone prior to watering to determine the amount of fertilizer and water needed.  This is all automatic.  The consumer will start noticing a beautiful lawn with an added benefit of potential monetary savings.
