This will lead to a poor lawn that will eventually be destroyed or burned by the heat due to lack of hydration.

However, water is not the only source of the growth and beauty of grasses or any plant. A fertilizer also has significant contribution in making luscious and healthy grasses on your backyard. When using a fertilizer, always keep in mind to follow the instruction and avoid putting too much, instead, slowly release small amounts of fertilizer to avoid any burns on your lawn.
