Question for Landlords Who Have Tenants Do Lawn/Snow Care

Hello,

My wife and I are going to be moving out of our primary residence soon so we can do a house hack and will turn our current house into our first SF rental. I had a few questions for other landlords who have lawn/snow care as part of the tenants responsibilities. In my area, I see a lot of other rentals posted with lawn/snow care as part of the tenants responsibilities and I would like to do the same. For other landlords who have tenants manage lawn/snow do you provide any equipment to them  (push mower, weed whipper, etc)? Also, the house has an in-ground sprinkler system. Do you let tenants manage the sprinkler system and choose whether they want to run it or not or should I just do away with it all together so it's one less thing to worry about? 

Thanks for your help and advice!
