However, in places like California, where water is becoming more scarce and are drought prone, this can prove to be a major problem. Lawns can potentially take in thousands of gallons of water every time the sprinklers are turned on, which can rack up overtime, especially from months to years. In addition, homes can use up to 50% of their total water intake just on their lawns alone, according to the U.C Master Gardener Program of Sonoma County. Compared to using the toilet, laundry, or taking a bath, a garden lawn easily wastes more water, even though we never see the true scale of how much water we’re wasting. However, there is a minor solution that can potentially make a huge impact on water
