Practice grass-cycling by leaving short grass clippings on lawns after mowing, so that nutrients and organic matter are returned to the soil.
In the fall, unless it is very hot outside, you can reduce your total watering time by 1/2.
Do not reduce run times, reduce the number of watering days.
Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
