Before you start
Water deeply, less often. Mulch 2–3 inches. Morning sessions reduce evaporation and disease pressure.
Mulch first
Lay 2–3 inches of mulch to hold moisture before you adjust your watering routine.
Water in the morning
Early sessions reduce evaporation and give foliage time to dry, cutting disease pressure.
