How much water is necessary for the maintenance of bermudagrass?
A. Exactly how little water is necessary has not been quantified by turfgrass scientists. Some projects are underway now to get a better idea. However, they do know that in general, bermudagrass will normally use all the water it is provided. Established bermudagrass can go for extended periods of time (60 to 90 days) without irrigation. They may go off-color and become dormant under such a prolonged period, but when they are watered again, new growth will emerge.
