Maintain a two to four inch layer of mulch on the soil surface to reduce weeds, infiltrate rain water, and reduce compaction.
Lawn watering more than 5 minutes usually results in runoff. Use multiple cycle starts.
Remove irrigation water and fertilizer from areas where you don't want weeds to grow.
