	Winter Time Water Conservation

The weather is cool now and regular watering is not needed.
Turn off the automatic controller and water manually when needed.
Put a soil probe (or your shovel) into the soil 6 inches to see if it's wet or dry. If it's wet, don't water. If it's dry, water only enough to wet the root zone.
The soil retains moisture longer because of lower temperatures. Some landscapes can stop watering until March, but others may need water once a month or so.
Turn off the automatic sprinkler system and only water every 2-3 weeks as needed.
Check the sprinkler heads at least monthly to make sure they are not broken and watering the landscape, not sidewalks, driveways, etc.
Don't water if it has rained.
Now is the time to plant trees, bushes and spring bulbs.
If you are doing some landscape redesign, make sure you modify the irrigation system also.
