Turf care that significantly reduces or primarily eliminates the use of artificial watering; with the focus on producing a more sustainable surface. This approach can actually be undertaken by careful planning: for example, overseed when periods of rainfall are more likely than not to help aid seed germination and establishment: A range of more drought resistant and adaptable grasses can be used for some turf situations. The same would apply to fertiliser application to ensure the applied fertiliser is adequately washed in to avoid scorching the grass, although different fertilisers will affect the surface differently, so consider ‘scorch' free fertilisers.
