Water more often and for longer per watering, that's the only solution (although you might consider using some sort of lawn wetting agent ... applied like fertilizer ... dunno if they actually work or are just expensive "snake oil" though).

Of course considering what water costs out here in CO I imagine the complaints from the wife will get louder when that first bill comes.
The Trugreen guy put some sort of "wetting agent" on it a week ago. I have been watering 30 minutes a station five days a week. The wife wants the lawn green no matter what it cost. I am the one who complains about the $300 water bills.

Thanks. I know the last few heads I have gotten were the Rain-Bird ones. I missed out on getting some brass ones a couple of years ago really cheap from a Southerlands store up in Casper.
