Keeping a nice lawn takes a lot of work. You have to revive patches of your lawn if it starts to die, pull up weeds, mow it, buy fertilizers, spend money on weed killers, etc. And whether you plan to do this all yourself or hire someone, you still have to invest a lot of money in your lawn every year.
If you can’t afford to pay someone to maintain your lawn, you have to get the right tools so you can do it yourself. This might include things like edgers, lawn mowers, weeders, rakes, and more. Some of these tools run on electricity or gas, which will just add to your expenses.
And the more you use them, the more worn down they get. You’ll have to buy new ones after a while, and some of these tools aren’t cheap.
Artificial grass doesn’t grow, so you never have to cut it. You don’t have to buy any tools or do any chores to upkeep your artificial lawn at all.
