Soils and Compost:

Incorporate compost 6" into your soil to retain water, reduce compaction, feed earthworms, and provide valuable nutrients to your plants.

Water Saving Tip:

Apply a 2" layer of mulch around plants to reduce moisture loss.

Choose organic mulches, such as shredded bark, compost, or aged sawdust.

Inorganic mulches such as gravel are also acceptable.

Integrated Pest Management:

Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
