Maintain a two to four inch layer of mulch on the soil surface to reduce weeds, infiltrate rain water, and reduce compaction.
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.
Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
