Sprinkler Mast Sprinkler (Temecula CA) wants to help provide you with credible information regarding keeping outdoor plants alive under water restrictions and during a drought.
To prevent irreversible damage your plants in Temecula CA need to be watered at an early stage of water shortages. It is best to check plants during the afternoon when symptoms are most noticeable for damage caused by lack of water. There are also other conditions that can mimic drought such as insects, salts, frosts and diseases.
“Common symptoms of water stress include:
– wilting or drooping leaves that do not return to normal by evening
– curled or yellow leaves that may fold or drop, or foliage that becomes grayish and loses its green luster
– new leaves that are smaller or stem sections that are closer together than normal
– lawn grasses that retain a footprint for several minutes”
