Soils and Compost:

Maintain a two to four inch layer of mulch on the soil surface to reduce weeds, infiltrate rain water, and reduce compaction.

Water Saving Tip:

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.

Integrated Pest Management:

Remove irrigation water and fertilizer from areas where you don't want weeds to grow.
