Do sprinkling regulations apply to both gardens and lawns?
No. Under twice-weekly and one-weekly sprinkling regulations, only lawn sprinkling is affected. If a total sprinkling ban is imposed, then watering of vegetables, flowers and shrubs must be done by hand using containers or a hose with a spring loaded shut off. Drip irrigation systems are the most efficient method of watering clusters of plants and are exempt from sprinkling regulations.
