This Week's Quick Tip: Winter Watering
As temperatures drop and days get shorter, your plants slow down their growth. This means they need less water than during the growing season.
The golden rule: Always check the soil before watering. Stick your finger 2 inches into the soil - if it's still moist, wait a few more days.
