Physical weed control, including mulching, or hand removal protects the watershed from harmful chemicals.
Water trees and shrubs by deep-soaking occasionally with low-volume irrigation equipment (drip, micro-sprays, or bubblers) to promote healthy, deep rooting.
Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
