Even after a week plus of hundred degree weather and one month on the road in July, our yard looks beautiful. SAWs even sent me an email that we were under the neighborhood average for water use in July. That's because of our efficient drip irrigation in the back yard and our once a week deep watering in the front yard. The backyard drip is set for 45 minutes, Mon., Wed, and Sat. I'm increasing it to one hour this week just because we are predicted to have another week of 100 degree plus. The front yard is set to run on Friday's in three, fifteen minutes intervals at 7:00 am, 8:15 am and 7:00 pm. I have drip set up for 10-15 minutes for our potted plants every other day.
