10%20 Tips%20for%20 Water%20 Savings[1]
The document provides 10 tips for saving water through small changes to irrigation practices. The tips include evaluating expectations, adjusting irrigation controllers for the season, determining precipitation rates for zones, applying water at 80% of estimated needs, turning off sprinklers in rain, soaking compacted areas in cycles, hand watering dry spots, using good horticultural practices, observing plants for water needs, and heavily mulching. Following these tips can lead to significant water savings through low-cost adjustments.
Sprinkler Precipitation Rates
1. Precipitation rate (PR) is the rate at which sprinkler heads apply water and should be consistent within a zone. Matching PRs requires using heads of the same type, manufacturer, and precipitation rate.
2. PR can be calculated using either the total area method by dividing total GPM by total area, or the individual head method using sprinkler spacing and pattern.
3. Reducing the radius of spray heads lowers the GPM according to manufacturer charts, but the GPM stays the same for rotors so the nozzle must be changed to match the new radius.

Plant diseases can be caused by biotic factors like pathogens or abiotic environmental conditions. Historically, diseases like St. Anthony's Fire caused by the fungus ergot of rye and the Irish Potato Famine caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans had large impacts. Common plant pathogens include viruses, phytoplasmas, bacteria, fungi, nematodes, and parasitic plants. The diagnostic process involves identifying the plant, examining the environment and growing area, and looking for symptoms and signs on the plant like spore masses or fruiting structures to determine the causal agent.
Coevolution
The document discusses the co-evolution of flowering plants and their pollinators over millions of years. It provides examples of highly specialized mutual dependencies that have developed between certain plants and pollinators, such as yuccas and yucca moths, passionflowers and butterflies. Many flowers have evolved traits like nectar guides, nectar spurs, and pollen structures that match the morphology of specific pollinator species in order to facilitate efficient pollination.
11 Pesticides
This document discusses the classification and formulation of pesticides. It provides information on how pesticides are classified by their formulation, mode of action, chemical group, and other factors.

1) Landscape design involves considering the 3D space of a site including floors, walls, and ceilings and determining appropriate functions and themes.
2) Bubble diagrams are used to define spaces and ensure the landscape design makes full use of the available area.
3) Choosing plants suited to the climate, design, and intended use of spaces allows the landscape to achieve its greatest potential and provide enjoyment.
Color In Garden Design For Montrose Botanical
The document discusses color theory and how to describe colors using standardized systems. It explains that colors have three main qualities - hue (the name of the color family), value (the lightness or darkness), and chroma (the intensity or saturation). The Munsell and Royal Horticulture Society (RHS) systems provide standards for describing colors. The document then discusses how to use different color qualities like hue, value, chroma, and contrast to achieve different effects in garden design.
Propagation by Division
Division is a method of plant propagation where the crown of the plant is separated into smaller pieces for propagation or rejuvenation. Each divided piece must have at least one bud and some roots. Benefits of division include acquiring several new plants and rejuvenating mature plants. Certain species like lavender and rosemary cannot be divided as they do not form crowns. The timing of division depends on when the plant blooms - spring bloomers are divided in fall and fall bloomers in spring, avoiding periods of active growth. Plants are divided when they have outgrown their space or have decreased flowering over years. Perennials form clumps over time and dividing allows producing several plants from one.
Raising New Plants Through Cuttings 2002
1. The document discusses how to take and care for different types of cuttings from plants, including softwood, semi-ripe, hardwood, leaf, root, and succulent cuttings.
2. It explains the optimal timing for taking each type of cutting based on the plant's stage of woodiness.
3. Instructions are provided for taking cuttings, treating them with rooting hormone, and maintaining the proper environment for root development.
Seeds 2008
This document provides an overview of seed collecting and starting, including the basics of flower and seed anatomy, harvesting seeds, cleaning and storing seeds, breaking dormancy through stratification and scarification, germinating seeds using paper towels or outdoor winter sowing, and tips on timing and care for seedlings. The agenda covers plant reproduction, identifying seeds and seed parts, techniques for collecting, cleaning and storing seeds, and methods for stratifying, scarifying and germinating seeds indoors or outdoors over winter.
Sprinkler Selection (2)
The document discusses different types of sprinklers and considerations for selecting sprinklers for irrigation systems. It covers spray vs rotor sprinklers, appropriate uses for each type, installation details, pressure requirements, and techniques for adjusting sprinkler radius and precipitation rates. Key factors discussed include sprinkler spacing, precipitation rates, pressure requirements, mixing sprinkler types on a single valve, and trajectory of water discharge.
Sizing Pipe And Valves
This document discusses sizing pipes and valves for an irrigation system. It notes that the safety limit for pipe velocity is 5 feet per second and provides an example of sizing pipes in reverse from the critical circuit length farthest from the valve. In the example, 3/4 inch pipe is sized for the first section supplying one head, 1 1/4 inch pipe for two heads, 1 1/2 inch pipe for three heads, and 2 inch pipe for four heads to keep velocity below 5 feet per second for each section. The document advises sizing additional circuits by splitting into smaller sections for lower water volumes and smaller pipe sizes.
Backflow Preventers
This document summarizes different types of backflow preventers used in irrigation systems. It describes atmospheric vacuum breakers, pressure vacuum breakers, reduced pressure backflow preventers, double check backflow preventers, and their applications based on flow rate and installation requirements. Selection of backflow preventers and sizing of mainlines and valves are discussed based on flow demands and allowable pressure losses.
Sprinkler Spacing
Sprinkler spacing should provide 100% overlap of watered areas. Exceptions can allow for slightly farther spacing to accommodate odd shapes, but at least 80% of heads should be head-to-head. Maximum spacing is the sprinkler radius multiplied by 60%. Smaller radius sprinklers may require radius adjustment devices to reduce spacing below 50% of the radius. Uniform spacing is important for even water coverage, with gradual changes in spacing. Square, triangular, and rectangular patterns are common, with different recommended spacing percentages based on wind conditions.
Water%20 Efficient%20 Landscaping%20 Design
The document provides a model ordinance for water-efficient landscape design to help Colorado communities promote water conservation. It was developed by the Colorado Department of Local Affairs to encourage the use of drought-tolerant landscaping. The model ordinance includes standards for landscape design, plant selection, irrigation systems, and other best practices to ensure water-efficient landscapes while preserving communities' character. It is meant to serve as an alternative or supplement to other landscape codes and support local master plans and conservation goals.
Irrigationmanual
This document provides guidance on designing and installing a low-volume drip irrigation system. It begins by introducing drip irrigation and its advantages over other methods. It then discusses evaluating your site conditions like soil type, slopes, and microclimates. The document provides a step-by-step process for 1) designing plantings, 2) designing the drip system, 3) installing it, 4) scheduling irrigation times, and 5) maintaining the system. It includes details on laying out distribution lines, valves, controllers, and troubleshooting potential issues. The overall document is a comprehensive manual for planning and implementing a water-efficient drip irrigation system.
I04 Audit Work S
This document provides a worksheet to calculate irrigation schedules based on precipitation rates and historical evapotranspiration (ET) data. It includes examples of calculating run times for different irrigation zones based on desired water amounts and precipitation rates. It also demonstrates scheduling irrigation to apply up to 1 inch of water per application based on monthly ET demands, accounting for soil water holding capacity and rooting depth. The optimal schedule is to irrigate zones once per week or once every 8 days to apply 1 inch of water at a time.
Creating Practical Turf Areas C Su
The document discusses selecting turf grasses and care based on water needs and site usage. Higher quality bluegrass and tall fescue require more water but provide aesthetic benefits, while buffalograss requires less water but is dormant in fall and spring. The amount of water used typically exceeds what the grasses need, and expectations can be adjusted to reduce watering. Different grasses have varying annual water requirements ranging from 14 to 34 inches depending on the type and quality expected.
4 Mulches And Practical Turf
Mulching provides several benefits including reducing evaporation by 25-50%, stabilizing soil moisture, preventing compaction, controlling weeds and moderating soil temperatures. When using wood/bark chip mulch, a 3-4 inch depth is standard for best weed control and eliminating compaction. Mulching around trees helps protect them from lawn mower damage but mulch should be kept 6 inches away from tree trunks. Grass clippings also make a good mulch for vegetable and flower beds when applied in thin layers.
2 Wwg2 Soil Hydrozone Irrigation
The document discusses several principles of water-wise gardening including planning and designing landscapes for water conservation, improving soil quality, selecting drought-tolerant plants, grouping plants according to water needs, efficient irrigation methods, and good horticultural practices. It provides details on how soil type, rooting depth, evapotranspiration rates, and plant water demands influence irrigation management and recommends irrigating lawns in July every 4-5 days with 0.8-1 inch of water depending on soil conditions.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
