Practice grass-cycling by leaving short grass clippings on lawns after mowing, so that nutrients and organic matter are returned to the soil.
Remember to check your irrigation system at least once a month, especially your valves, sprinkler heads, and drip emitters.
Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
