Lawns that people insist on being bright kelley green 24/7/365, as though they lived in some damp Irish countryside sheep's meadow where it never stops misting, do require a lot of extra water in most places, but it does not harm your grass if it yellows out during periods of no rain.

Whenever it next rains again, it bounces right back.

Plus, not only is it eco-friendly to just leave your lawn the fuck alone, it's also means you don't gotta do anything!!

Lazy lawn care is best lawn care.
