Thanks for your answers so far ^^ I feeling a lot more confident with the summer growers, but I'm finding that I have more winter growers than I had originally thought. This is where I'm getting most confused. Should winter growers still be kept in a cool environment and get watered often or should they be kept in a warmer environment in the winter and then cooler in the summer? I am feeling bad cause I'm afraid I might hurt or kill these plants. I keep hearing and reading that it's very bad to water any succulents when they are in a cold environment, so I'm not sure how to keep these winter growers. That's my own stupidity thinking that all cactus and succulents grow in a hot and sunny environment. So far the ones I have read that are winter growers that I have are: Albuca spiralis Aloinopsis rubrolineata Dioscorea elephantipes Pelargonium carnosum Pelargonium laxum Pelargonium paniculatum Are any of these other succulents that I own winter growers? I spent 5 hours last night searching for every plant and none of these mentioned growing in the winter: Adenia spinosa Adenium obesum Adromischus cooperi Agave stricta Alluaudia montagnacii Aloe daniel Aloe fragilis Aloe lineata Aloe variegata Cissus tuberosa Crassula mesembryanthemoides Crassula rupestris Dorstenia sp. Edithcolea grandis Euphorbia bupleurifolia Euphorbia gottliebii Euphorbia lactea Euphorbia mammillaris Euphorbia milii Euphorbia tirucalli Euphorbia trigona Euphorbia venenifica Gasteria Huernia hybrid Ledebouria socialis Mammillaria bocasana monstrose Pachypodium geayi Pachypodium sp. nova Petopentia natalensis Portulacaria afra var. foliis-variegatis Stapelia flavopurpurea Euphorbia enopla or fimbriata Bryophyllum daigremontianum X tubiflorum Thank you all so very much, Ross

Hi Texas Gal, My hood is the RA0236SQB-1 model, a chimney-style that seems to be phased out in favor of a newer model. Overall, I'm very happy with it, although it may not mean much as prior to installing it last April I had no active ventilation in my kitchen. After the rotary switches failed and were replaced (within the warranty window), there has been no issue with this hood. I also don't expect any, as it's a simple, mechanical appliance, a fan driven by a brush-less AC motor installed in a steel box. Having sad this, I think that you're looking at a different hood: http://www.koberangehoods.com/product/RA-028SQB-WM-1.html. If that's right, then you're talking about a different animal. The depth is only 19.5", which means poor effluent capture. The baffles look different too and I couldn't find a picture showing the underside so it's not obvious how much is covered by baffles. Did you look at the CH-122SQB-1 model? At least it's 22" deep. Cheers, P.S. How does one send private email via gardenweb?

Floorman here 40 years experience professional installer First. You have a bigger leak under floor if it buckling. Sound to me you would be better to have vinyl plank installed instead of wood. If you want a professional job it will cost you $10 plus for wood and labor no furniture. Labor alone is $5 in Missouri. The cheap hardwood is all going to be soft easy to scratch. Vinyl plank would be cheaper. Labor is $1.50 to $2.00 sq ft. Its glue down or it can be loose laid if you buy that type. If a peace gets scratched easier to replaced even for DIY but that peace will have to be glued. Vinyl plank looks like real wood now days. Water won’t hurt it as long as not a major leak. If your on concrete for wood or vinyl a moisture test should be taken first to see if there’s any hydrostatic pressure if there is it shouldn’t lay either one would have to fix problem first. With vinyl plank if it is glued you might need 1/4” underlayment on sub floor. But loose snap in vinyl plank you shouldn’t need underlayment. If your floor is wavy so will the vinyl plank look. Just my advice.

The media is diligent on telling people to get what they want to buy at the store and leave. Don't handle every pepper, looking for the perfect one, pick what you want and move. Same as canned food, everything. Scan with your eyes then touch. It was on the news that even running or cycling, you have to keep a further distance apart, and ideally, to the side of one another. Droplets can fly off the person in front to the person behind. I wore a scarf to a store yesterday as it's a small store. There were signs all over to keep a safe distance apart. Everyone was, except for the girl behind me. I even moved forward a bit, and she got right up behind me. She had a mask on, so thought it was safe to do so, perhaps, I don't know. I was going to say something but I didn't. Even the employee who was telling people which checkout was open didn't say anything. Ok Jasdip, no more ms nice girl, I've got to be vocal from now on.
