Lmao no more freebies

Honestly, the only thing I cover with a tarp is coy ponds. Everything else I have my ground guy water. As a side note, my ground guys have been with me for over 2 years and are very diligent with their watering.

Thank you. I had a hard time finding this one in the search. I will continue reading though and learning all of the knowledge. Although I may have more Questions later but will be sure that I have exhausted all searches before I ask. Thanks again.

Is it better to have the ground person continuously rinse the landscape or cover it with a tarp. And is a tarp too heavy and plastic shoulds be used.

Step 1. Water in the plants. (not a rinse, a soaking of the ground)
Step 2. Rinse the plants.
Step 3. While spraying the roof, Dilute all run off and rinse anything it does or can come into contact with.
Step 4. Rinse the damn plants!
Step 5. Just before leaving, resoak the ground and then RINSE the plants.

Covering plants can be a catch 22. Personally in a state where the temp can easily reach 100 degees I don't cover plants anymore.

Maybe on a cool morning I'll cover shrubs and bushes. But never small flowers.
Upside is we have a lot of palms here and they don't mind the mix at all.
