I've lived in my house for 12 years and never watered my lawn due to the well. Yesterday was the first time I watered the lawn....new grass seed / dry weather..and I ran out of water.

Question - I always assumed I should not try to water my lawn given I have a well but, is this assumption right or could there be something wrong with my water supply?

Don't know the well pump capacity, new (3 months old) 85 gal WellXTrol (pro) water storage tank. Simple old fashion back and forth lawn sprinkler.

Thanks

i live in a development where we all have wells. some can water their lawns daily, powerwash, etc.., ehile others can barely do a load of laundry without running out.

there are many factors that play a role, such as well depth, pump age,size and depth, geology and plain old dumb luck.
