Fake grass?

10 years ago

Hello! We are considering putting in fake grass as my hubs hates watering. We have dogs and I have read mixed reviews. Can anyone share their experiences they have had with it good and bad? Thanks!

I am thinking about fake grass as I have a big dog and DH does not want to mow grass (and it's a waste of water IMO). Did you decide?

It's fine as long as you're diligent in picking up after they've pooped & hose it occasionally to wash through the urine, otherwise it will get smelly.

To get a good looking fake, it will cost a lot. The cheap stuff looks fake and gets very hot. Make sure to get a good drainage system one for pets. Will be upwards of $10,000 for a small lawn:)

Still haven't decided. Heard it's a nightmare with dogs so now I'm really on the fence? I also have a 1 year old who is very messy. Might just go with the real stuff...

How big is your lawn? Are you in CA. If you are, you may want to consider draught, tolerant, native grasses. That's what I'm looking at now, as the fake stuff is very expensive and very bad for the environment.
