We have watering restrictions, can water three times a week for 8 minutes a session. I don't worry much about the grass but am more concerned about the trees that are watered when the grass is watered. We had a lemon tree look bad last year until DH started watering it by hand. We might have to start watering the trees with soaker hoses. I don't think there is watering restrictions on anything besides grass. Last I read, there was no restriction on watering food plants. Meanwhile, the guy across the street waters on the wrong days (and possibly every day) and the guy down the street hoses off his driveway.
