My lawn has been slowly deteriorating since it was sodded a few years ago. A lot of my neighbors have sprinker systems and their lawns are perfect. I'm wondering if there are any techniques, aside from regular applications of fertilizer, to maintain a healthy and thick lawn in the midatlantic region (I'm near Washington D.C.).
I don't like to water because it's a bit wasteful and tedious. I don't really want a sprinkler system because it is also wasteful, expensive and incurs yearly maintenance. I'm ok with the lawn going dormant (brown) during the summer as long as it rebounds in the Fall
So is there anything I can do to keep my lawn from slowly dying/being overcome by weeds? Thanks
