Had a neighbour who used a company called chemlawn to keep his lawn.
Beautiful green lawn. Sold the house and the new owner didn't keep up
the chemlawn. Totally dead lawn within a year, and needed to resod.

He probably didn't water it either.

Watering lawns is a waste of a valuable resource, the water.



Depends upon the location of the lawn.

Vegas, yes. Chicago, no.

In DC I watered my lawn one summer, 1992, it cost me about $400 in water
charges. I called the water company and asked them about it and they
said that the cost was 1/3 coming in and 2/3 going out and that I could
get a meter put on my sewer line for about $1200 dollars. I learned
about grass cycle. And I donated $100 per year to the local VFD.
