Soils and Compost:
Physical weed control, including mulching, or hand removal protects the watershed from harmful chemicals.
Water Saving Tip:
Check soil moisture below the surface with a soil probe or large screwdriver, trowel or shovel. Don't assume the plants need water just because the soil surface looks dry.
Integrated Pest Management:
Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
