Here in Colorado we also have drought conditions mandatory water
restrictions allow every 3 days which they say is enough I water for about
10-15 minutes early in the morning this allow the water time to sep in if
you water in the evening they say you have a better chance of mold or mildew
forming!

Keep you grass somewhat long 3-4" this shades the soil and helps keep it
cooler and keeps the moisture in!
