Yard Update | Sprinklers

I don’t have a good picture so I won’t bother, but here is the update.  Spring is coming around and its coming fast.  Things are starting to green up in my yard, trees putting on their leaves and the flowers and other plants are really starting to show some life.  That includes my grass which is doomed.  I just got my chemicals for my lawn renovation and will be starting on the treatment as soon as the sprinklers are worked out.  The sprinkler layout that was back there before left a lot to be desired in terms of coverage.  And I changed the general shape of the grass and added the hot tub so the coverage was even more problematic.  As a result I have done a lot of digging and cutting pipe and burying new sprinklers.  I now how all pop-up sprinklers exclusively.  I put them in one sprinkler at a time and the run the system to see how the coverage changed.  The nice thing about that approach is that you don’t make too many assumptions about coverage and cause yourself lots of unnecessary work.  I only have two more to add and I think I will have a perfect coverage on the lawn.  As soon as I get some pictures I will post them up so you can see how things are going.
