For whatever reason, mine is looking really good and full. In fact, I'll be out mowing it today in a parka.

Anyway, I've never watered my lawn a single time, but I attribute it to a couple of things:

1. I let it grow longer and don't cut it quite as short as everyone else.
2. I put down a weed 'n feed last fall/early winter and am going to put down another one this weekend. I've done that each of the last 4 years and my grass looks healthier than anyone else's in my neighborhood.
