Practice grass-cycling by leaving short grass clippings on lawns after mowing, so that nutrients and organic matter are returned to the soil.
In general, lawns only need to be watered once every three days.
Check your irrigation controller and reduce watering times if necessary.
Develop healthy soil for plants that are vigorous and naturally pest-resistant.
