Check Your Watering Clock

Lawn irrigation smart in Las Vegas

Mandatory watering schedule

September 1 to October 31

It is that time of the year again to check your watering clock. Every Fall the Southern Nevada Water Authority tells us to reduce the number of watering days from 6 to 3 per week. Reducing watering days in the Fall helps with the water preservation. "It's a desert out there!" The water resources are limited and we have to use them responsibly.

Changing the irrigation timers

It should be easy to change the irrigation timer. However, the many options on the dial or the electronic screen can make it confusing. You may have to read the manual every time you need to change the timer settings. And changing the watering clock must be done 4 times a year in Las Vegas.

We can set the irrigation timers for you. Call us.

The spring water schedule is a simple way to determine how much water your plants need based on their size and stage of maturity. This formula can help you determine if you should use drip irrigation or overhead watering.

The spring water schedule is a simple way to help your plants get off to a good start. You can use this method to make sure that your plants are getting enough water at the beginning of their life cycle. This is especially helpful if you have just started growing and don't know how much water your plants need. Spring water schedule is a great way to ensure that your plants receive adequate amounts of water throughout the entire season.

Step 1: Fill a bucket with water and place it in a sunny spot outside.

Step 2: Wait until the water has warmed up to room temperature (about 70 degrees).

Step 3: Place your pots into the bucket. Make sure they are not touching each other or the sides of the bucket.

Step 4: Cover the top of the bucket with plastic wrap.
