HI all you Highland Ranchers out there if you have heard the news we are now in a stage one in a drought all over the Denver Metro Area. What does this mean for us home owners and future home owners?
This means that voluntary water restrictions shall go in effect immediately! Don't fret because your nice KentuckY Bluegrass lawn won't go brown if you follow these rules.
THESE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS OFFICIALS ARE ASKING YOU TO DO:
- Please water only two days a week and don't water if we get rain
- Try and only water areas that need it the most. if there is grass in a shady are that won't need as much water as the one in direct sunlight
- Water in the early mornings or early evenings to avoid evaporation, watering too late at night may cause mold so be careful
- Don't forget your sprinkler system is adjustable it has settings for different parts of the season. If you don't know how to adjust these refer to your owner manual. Don't just set it and forget it that'll waste tons of water!!!!!
- Water less than two minutes
MANDATORY WATER RESTRICTIONS GO IN AFFECT MAY 1ST: HERE ARE SOME OF THOSE RESTRICTIONS
- No watering your lawn between 10 A.M.-6 P.M.Don't water more than three days a week (you can pick and choose the days you want)
