Soils and Compost:

Physical weed control, including mulching, or hand removal protects the watershed from harmful chemicals.

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:

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