I live in TN. and we are in arrears 8 inches of rainfall. I have watered
once about a week ago and am concerned about weekly mowing. Will this
just stress the lawn more?? We have an acre of lawn and clay soil.
Watering extensively is too costly. Welcome any thoughts, thanks.

Their lawn's probably dry because it takes them so long to enter text into
their webtv, instead of a computer. There's no time left to water it. =)

I'm tellin' ya dood, k/f everything originating from webtv. It makes for
better reading. Same for G2. K/F googlegroup posts right off the bat, then
upscore the /very/ few that are worth reading.

I'm in Atlanta and have the same issue, although my yard isn't as big as =
yours.  I was out flying yesterday in the North Georgia/East TN/SW N. =
Carolina area and can tell you that I've never seen so many brown yards =
and fields as I saw during yesterday's flight.  It is VERY dry...

My suggestion is to raise your mowing height to the top of the =
acceptable range for your fescue, but continue cutting every week. When =
you do water, water deeply - don't just dampen the soil, soak it.

Oh yeah.  And hope for rain.
