Soils and Compost:
Maintain a two to four inch layer of mulch on the soil surface to reduce weeds, infiltrate rain water, and reduce compaction.
Water Saving Tip:
Lawn watering more than 5 minutes usually results in runoff. Use multiple cycle starts.
Integrated Pest Management:
Develop healthy soil for plants that are vigorous and naturally pest-resistant.
