Soils and Compost:
Incorporate compost 6" into your soil to retain water, reduce compaction, feed earthworms, and provide valuable nutrients to your plants.
Water Saving Tip:
As the weather gets hotter avoid the temptation to increase run times.

Integrated Pest Management:
Remove irrigation water and fertilizer from areas where you don't want weeds to grow.
