If you water with overhead sprinklers, water early in the day so the foliage has time to dry off before evening, to minimize disease problems. It's best to water with a drip or trickle system that delivers water at low pressure at the soil level. Use a rain gauge to check to see if you need to add water. Plants need about 1 inch of rain per week during the growing season.Always keep mulches off a plant’s stems to prevent possible rot. For annuals an organic mulch of shredded leaves lends a natural look to the bed and will improve the soil as it breaks down in time. Mulches also help retain soil moisture and maintain even soil temperatures.Weeds compete with plants for water, space and nutrients, so control them by either cultivating often or use a mulch to prevent their seeds from germinating. Keep weeds under control during the growing season.
