Simple garden hose sprinkler on Well pump issue

Hello! I have been searching the forums for an answer for my dilemma for a while. I haven't been able to find a thread that answers it, but please forward me to one if it does exist. Now onto the issue...

I have recently moved into a new home and completely redid the front lawn, as it was a barren disaster before. It's a little over a half an acre of front lawn. I grew everything from scratch, seed/stray. It has come in nicely. During this time though I noticed during the daily watering (during germination) that my well pump would cycle on for several seconds and then off for about 45 seconds. Now I try to give it a good watering once a week, but this short cycling on the pump really has me worried. I know its bad for the pump and I've been trying to find a way to fix it. I do not have a sprinkler system, nor do I plan on installing one. I have been using a simple garden hose with a sprinkler on the end of it. I'm just looking for a way to make it so my pump will not short cycle. Would there be such a way? Thanks in advance!

 

A Cycle Stop Valve (CSV) is the answer:

Clearly with your pump turning on for less than 10 seconds each time, you have a problem.

In addition to other measures, consider drawing more water at the same time. Drive more sprinklers and bigger sprinklers.
