My dh had to have a sprinkler system
WE spent about 3 grand or so on a sprinkler system last summer. The actual cost was low as he got a lot of quotes and also got a rain sensor etc. WE have a very large yard. He insists "water is cheap in out city" and he wants green thick plush grass. We are in Michigan where we only use it maybe half the year due to seasons, but I thought it was kind of a waste to run the thing daily like he does. Green grass was nicer than the yellow patchy lawn.
Also when I mow, he refuses to ever let me mulch, ever. So I have to bag which is more work than mowing in all seriousness.
He doesn't want our precious little shih tzu dog to get grass clippings on his feet in the back. (He also had our stamped concrete patio catered to accomodate this dog's short legs with more steps to get to the grass) LOL.
I say mulching fertilizes. He says it will kill the grass.
