Days are getting shorter and plant water needs have already begun to decrease. How did your plants fare the months of June, July and August? The monsoon rains have been a little above average so far (Sept. 30 is the official end of the season), but we also had one of our warmest summer periods on record. The record-breaker was due to high nighttime temperatures likely caused from the urban heat island.

Monsoons can be very ‘hit or miss,' they've finally ‘hit' the majority of the Valley. If you don't have your own rain gauge, you can check www.rainlog.org to see what local weather watchers have recorded inyour neighborhood. Anytime you receive at least one-half inch of rain, use the 'off' 'stop' or 'rain' setting on your controller to stop the watering cycle without disturbing your programs. While the higher humidity makes us feel more uncomfortable, it does decrease the water needs of plants a little.
