Log
Aug 2020: Grass came back mostly with lots of watering.
June 2020:
Lots of dead grass in front yard - sprinkler coverage is poor.
Replace all sprinkler heades with Rain Bird 3500 rotating heads - per Catrina at Sprinkler World.
Use nozzle 1.5 for heads 1, 2, 4, 5. Use nozzle 1.0 for nozzle 3.
Nozzles are numbered as: 1 is nearest the front door, then counter-clockwise.
I discovered a water leak on the east side of the driveway.
Leak was actually in a pipe on the west side of the 3" tube that runs underneath the driveway.
A 2" aspen root caused the leak. Pipes repaired 26Jun2020.
