Mormons & lawns

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/sep/25/mormons-lawns-utah-old-testament-godly-act-megadrought

Mormons getting press in other areas. The drought and Big Green Lawns is the topic of this article. Some interesting information from a source that is not pro or anti MoronicPriesthood,inc.

Re: Mormons & lawns

To be fair, I think this is a constant topic of conversation in the western U.S., both for Mormons and non-Mormons. I don't think that letting your lawn die is the solution either. If you are not going to go with a lawn, then you need to put some thought into attractive desert-scaping. As the population continues to grow, IMO the issue will be forced.

Re: Mormons & lawns

Most people water their lawn way too much. Also plugging a lawn and adding some peat moss in the spring is a big help. The peat moss will help the soil retain water. Also leaving your lawn longer when it gets over 90 degrees is a big help.

It’s called water management. You can have green things with less water if you know how to manage your resources.

Re: Mormons & lawns

My Mormon neighbor put in artificial grass so now his lawn is like his church. Pretty but fake.
