Physical weed control, including mulching, or hand removal protects the watershed from harmful chemicals.
Check your irrigation controller once a month, and adjust as necessary.
Most plants require only one-third as much water in winter as they do in summer.
Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
