Maintain a two to four inch layer of mulch on the soil surface to reduce weeds, infiltrate rain water, and reduce compaction.
In general, lawns only need to be watered once every three days.
Check your irrigation controller and reduce watering times if necessary.
Remove irrigation water and fertilizer from areas where you don't want weeds to grow.
