Physical weed control, including mulching, or hand removal protects the watershed from harmful chemicals.
As the weather gets hotter avoid the temptation to increase run times.
Instead, schedule more start times with one to two hours in between to allow the water from the previous session to soak in before watering again.
Remove irrigation water and fertilizer from areas where you don't want weeds to grow.
