There are several products and techniques to maximize water efficiency in your garden.
Water-Saving Techniques:
- Rainwater Harvesting: Collect rainwater in barrels from your gutters to use during dry spells, reducing dependency on municipal water supplies.
- Gray Water Use: Reuse water from baths and dishes (free from bleach or disinfectants) to water your plants.
- Mulching: Mulch helps retain soil moisture, reducing the need for frequent watering. Opt for coarse mulch for the best results.
By adopting these strategies, you can create a beautiful, sustainable landscape that withstands drought conditions and reduces your water usage significantly.
