1) Stop mowing all non-irrigated turf
2) Reduce mowing on irrigated turf
3) Reduce irrigation systems to 2 days per week, longer cycles
4) Water 1-3 year old trees and select *specimen trees 3 days per week, Tu-W-Th (water with water wagons, gator bags and drip hoses)
5) Deeply water annual ground beds once per week, M (water with water wagons and drip hoses)
6) Water annual flower containers and urns twice a week, M-F (water with water wagons and drip hoses)
7) Water select perennial beds once per week, F (overhead sprinklers and drip hoses)
-During severe drought conditions, even fully staffed, Grounds will not be able to keep up with the watering of 1-3 year old trees, select *specimen trees, annuals and perennial beds without reducing the following services: sanitation, mulching, leaf pick-up and weed control. Expect to see several stressed trees with early leaf drop, annual beds to become weak, wilted and weedy, stressed and weedy perennial beds and straw brown turf.
