Lawn Tips
Removing lawn clippings can be a time-consuming chore. Save time by
leaving your grass clippings on the lawn after mowing. The recycled
nutrients could save about 20 percent of your annual fertilizer
costs.

Water Tips for the Fall Season
Most over-watering occurs during the fall. Shallow roots will
result if fall watering is not decreased. Rain worsens the problem
by adding more water to already wet soil. By giving plants only the
water they need, you can reduce root rot, reduce water bills and
reduce water runoff.

WATER TIP
When watering plants, use the cycle
and soak watering method: water 3 times a day for 4 minutes instead
of watering for 12 minutes all at once. Your landscape will absorb
more of the water, and you'll prevent runoff. |
