Water restrictions start May 1st

10 years ago

For me. I can water ONLY on Sunday, Wednesday and Friday, before 10 a.m. and after 5 p.m. Unless I have a drip system, (or a watering can!) and then I can water all day I guess, no mid-day ban for me. Oh, and no watering whatsoever on Monday, my only guaranteed day off...

So..... I guess I'll be getting some more soaker hoses, as I don't know HOW to set up a drip system yet (working on learning how though, PDQ!) and watering a section at night. Gah.

I know it's rational, needed, and important - and I have no lawn, so that's a good thing - but, nooooooooooo!

I had a running toilet fixed. It probably used more water than my rose watering. Except for the babies, my landscaping is established and I water once a week. Last summer I watered too long and will need to keep an eye on it. Most of it is manual and I need to remember to move the sprinkler. 80% of my yard is oaks and they don't get watered.
