We too are not living in TV yet and one of the things that we learned the hard way was not watering the lawn enough. The original sprinkler settings that came with the house were not long enough to keep our lawn from turning brown. We also didn't start the weed and fertilizer treatment soon enough. So...brown lawn with giant weeds throughout. It took some extra lawn treatments plus setting the sprinklers to water for three days at extended lengths of time. The water bills have been astronomical for a few months, but the lawn is now green and healthy.
