Practice grass-cycling by leaving short grass clippings on lawns after mowing, so that nutrients and organic matter are returned to the soil.
Check your irrigation systems at least once per month (or after each mowing).
Monitor each cycle to identify obvious problems and to confirm that all of the components are functioning properly.
Contact your water agency for assistance.
Remove irrigation water and fertilizer from areas where you don't want weeds to grow.
