Incorporate compost 6" into your soil to retain water, reduce compaction, feed earthworms, and provide valuable nutrients to your plants.
Remember to check your irrigation systems once a month, especially your valves, sprinkler heads, and drip emitters.
If your controller is not a smart controller, it should be reprogrammed as the weather changes.
Develop healthy soil for plants that are vigorous and naturally pest-resistant.
