Watering
Set up a watering system, such as drip irrigation or soaker hoses.
Water your plants early in the morning to give them a head start.
Make a frequent check of flowers and vegetables for their watering needs.
Add a light layer of mulch around young plants to help their roots retain water.
Plants
Replace dead annuals to ensure colorful blooms all summer long.
Harvest vegetable gardens and fruit orchards gardens.
Control weeds with mulch, weed mesh fabrics, or by using weed killer chemicals.
Rejuvenate annual and perennial flowers by deadheading.
Make sure you check your plants regularly for signs of insect infestation.
Apply a second, midsummer dose of fertilizer to young shrubs and trees.
Keep shrubs pruned and plants pinched back to promote dense, bushy growth.
Place a sheet of fine netting or wire mesh over strawberries, blueberries, and other fruit crops as soon as they begin to develop fruit.
Check your yard for poisonous plants and remove promptly.
Lawn
Keep grass mowed to a recommended height of 3 inches.
Water deeply your lawn once a week for an hour at a shot.
Raise the cutting height on your mower to keep grass longer.
