Abstract
A turf wetting device has a handle which receives water from a hose. The handle is connected to a base by a stem. The stem directs water from the handle into the base. The base then collects the water and directs the water through plural probes which are directed into the ground. The user can stand on the base to prevent bulging of the wetted soil. The probes consist of a central probe and preferably four outer probes proximate to the comers of the base which direct water in two directions.
