1.Add organic matter to your lawn to build the soil — or spread an inch of compost in the fall, and water it in.
2.A large part of the food that your lawn needs can be supplied by leaving your grass clippings on the lawn — mulch those grass clippings.
3.Increasing the organic matter in your lawn by as little as 5% will quadruple the soil’s ability to hold water.
