[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My in-laws outside Denver have it.  They spent about 100k on hardscape and astroturf.  They have dogs with drains under the faux grass.  They love it.  Plus good for environment bc not watering it. [/quote]

Oh please, it is not good for the environment. It is demonstrably terrible for the environment.

[b]In a dry area to avoid watering you should use xeriscaping[/b].

I'm wondering if there's an industry shill in this discussion. Astroturf for the astroturf. [/quote]

So it’s better to use rocks and gravel as a “yard” instead of an artificial turf? AYFKM?

Because rocks and gravel are somehow better for the environment than an equally sterile patch of AstroTurf?

How about “which is more comfortable to walk on/play on/enjoy? “ You know - the important things that people ask of a yard? Would you rather walk barefoot on a patch of rocks and gravel or on artificial turf? Which would you rather sit on? Which is easier to keep clean and free of debris/leaves?

A gravel and rock yard is just as much a biological dead zone as a astroturf yard. In that case, why not at least pick the option of the one that’s at least comfortable to enjoy.

You think posters here are for the turf lobby? I think some people have have rocks in their heads. [/quote]
