How on earth can I get rid of this pine cone ginger?
Comments (9)dbarron, that's what I thought, but wanted confirmation. I've dug out around them and will just keep cutting them back below ground and covering them back up. I just hope they don't start coming up on the other side of the wall. :( Ricky, there is no way to do that. I can't get to the tuber underneath the wall. I did think of pouring boiling not water into the hole where they are....See MoreCan someone help me identify this weed and how i can get rid of it.
Comments (3)Chickweed, Stellaria media, a cool weather annual weed. Very easily pulled up but do it before it goes to seed!! Also edible if you care to get rid of it that way :-)...See MoreWhat can I do to get rid of nutgrass in a newly planted out flowerbed?
Comments (1)No, the only thing you can do is to weed as soon as you see a little spike stick it head up. Nothing seems to kill it. Get yourself a dandelion weeder and keep after it. The least little root will sprout....See MoreHow can I get rid of this awful stained grout?
Comments (10)In my former home I had about 600sf of 4" tile with discolored sahara beige grout. It was recessed among a thousand squares of sharp edged unglazed quarry tile. MILES of grout! No surface cleaning machine will scrub the grout if it is recessed and the scrub pads will clean the tile and float there. I talked to equipment rental places regarding disc floor machines with pads and brushes and was told it really wouldn't make great contact down there. I manually tried many chemicals, stopping short of carcinogens. I used stuff that should not be used on grout including oven cleaner and the most effective was Lysol 10x toilet cleaner in the black bottle. I had an industrial strength steamer that cleaned but didn't remove discoloration. In the end, the toilet cleaner and a battery powered brush like this at Amazon was what worked the best. It was tedious and messy and I used dozens of rags to wipe up and rinse, doing this over a long period of time. It never looked like new and despite being "clean", it was not uniform in color. I was a tough critic, though, and it was probably fine for most people. Of course I sealed it afterward. If you choose to hire someone, ask if they will do a sample section so you can determine if it will clean to a uniform color. Instead of the painted on stuff that will not last (and looks like paint IMO), I wonder if there is a stain like product that would darken porous grout. Good luck with this....See MoreYardvaark
