Replace Your Lawn With Synthetic Turf

Southern California is pretty much perfect for growing plants.  A consistently warm temperature last through out the year, and varies only a few degrees from summer to winter.  Although our plants do have seasonality that effects them, typically the only thing you need to worry about is if it is un-naturally hot in the summer.  This year, that was the case and it was combined with a drought that sent our reserve water levels down to critically low points.  When this happens, there is no way to assure all people will have enough water to drink, and if this is the case then automatic conservation efforts start.  These conservation efforts involve the legality of watering your lawn, which wastes up to 55 gallons of water every year per square foot.  In times when water is plentiful this is not an issue, but when water is scarce we need to allocate it to humans and animals, and not to keeping your grass alive.  This sudden type of shift is very disturbing to many residents who have invested great amounts of time and money into their lawn, only to find themselves sitting helplessly by while it dies under watering restrictions.  The restrictions have been lifted now that we have made it through summer and the heat is no longer such a factor, but unfortunately now you have a choice to make as a homeowner, are you going to restore your lawn or replace it with something water smart?

Homeowners who are using the winter to re-seed or restore their lawns that were damaged by the drought and watering restrictions in southern California have no way of assuring themselves that the exact same ting isn't going to happen next summer.  There is no way to predict weather patterns that far out, so essentially they are investing in something that has a good chance of immediately suffering s soon as the warmer weather comes.  Is it a wise investment to put money into something that will probably be destroyed again, or should you look into viable alternatives like artificial turf? Synthetic grass is a product that looks and feels exactly like regular grass, only it is not alive and needs no water in order to look good.  It is not growing and will need no ongoing mowing or care.  It is designed to feel like grass, and is installed over cushioning material that makes it feel real, if not even better than real.  Because there is no water necessary in order to keep it in this state, the benefits to the community at times of drought as well as your property values when your neighbor's lawns are turning brown is huge.  Artificial turf is a smart investment at ta time when changing weather patterns show no signs of cooling off the summers.  It is probably only going to get worse, and spending money on something that will only last a few months is quite foolish.
