Sounds like you should cut back especially since the weather will be cooler. And if you are watering during the hottest part of the day it could be that the grass is burning.

45940 gallons of water in hot tub, don’t you mean Pool, very large pool? Most hot tubs hold 300 to 700 gallons of water. Swim spa may double that?
