Soils and Compost:
Physical weed control, including mulching, or hand removal protects the watershed from harmful chemicals.

Apply a layer of mulch around plants to reduce moisture loss.
Choose organic mulches, such as shredded bark, compost or aged sawdust.

Remove irrigation water and fertilizer from areas where you don't want weeds to grow.
