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 systems once a month, especially your valves, sprinkler heads, and drip emitters.
If your controller is not a smart controller, it should be reprogrammed as the weather changes.
Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
