Fertilize!  

Fertilizing is important and it doesn't have to be hard to do if you follow these simple rules!

 



How to set your watering timer  

Every irrigation system we install has the same watering timer, or rain dial.  Changing it as the seasons change (yes, Arizona has seasons, at least to your plants it has!) is important.  Remembering how is hard.  This is your refresher.  If you have problems, call us.

 

 


How to drain your waterfall if you're leaving for an extended period of time   (play the video to the right)

 If you're about to leave for an extended period of time it may make sense to drain your waterfall.  There's a right way and a wrong way.  The video to the right titled "Draining Your Waterfall" walks you through each step.




How to make and apply Dr. Keven's secret, patented plant and bug wash   (play the video to the right that looks like an old fashioned label)

 Okay, it's not secret or patented and Keven isn't a doctor.  BUT, his plant and bug wash works great, is easy on the environment and you can make refills yourself.  Replace his nasty tobacco tea with water if you don't have a bug problem.




How to apply weed control   (play the "Applying Weed Control" video to the right)

 You may think Keven's orange gloves are a fashion statement, but they're not.  He wears gloves when applying Surflan and so should you.
