Just a quick reminder that our plants and lawns need extra water too over the next several day.  In case you haven't heard :~) , our Seattle forecast is for temperatures into the 80's & 90's beginning today and through this Sunday.  If your landscape is less than one year old, a deep watering everyday will be most welcome. If less than two years old, every other day is fine.  With established plants/lawn a good watering at least once during this period is recommended.

If you have an automated irrigation system with a water budget feature, change it to 130% of normal which will increase the watering times by 30%.  Additional, check the daily watering schedule to make sure that your system in running often enough.   Run a manual cycle if needed during our `Seattle Heat Wave'.
