WANTED: I need help, I need a super fast growing hedge?
Comments (8)I knew as soon as I seen this, that is was a neighbor issue, been there done that, I mentioned forsythia to you on another thread, but now that I see this I wanted to add that you ought to plant rose bushes in a row, the ones that have the largest thorns you can find, in case he tries to come any closer. we had a guy that lives diagonal from us that was standing outside of his door with a video camera, DH sees him while he was messing in the fridge (keep in mind we have a giant white pine tree, that is over our kitchen window) DH from the fridge, starts bobbing and weaving to try to see through the tree at this guy to see what he is doing and he jumped back in the house with the camera, now isn't that spooky? I hate to keep the sun out of my house, but I really think mini blinds are the best thing invented, and they are inexpensive....See MoreQuestion..Need Help
Comments (1)Hi Zoey A fence makes the best neighbor. But since you are looking for plants... Not many things grow well in shade, but yews are pretty hardy, and can take a lot of shade. They can be trimmed to any height or width. They aren't particularly fast growing, but you should be able to get large plants. You will need to water any shrubs the first year. Hope this helps....See MoreCan someone help me find a fast internet service?
Comments (16)I've been working from home for 3 years now using DSL. First at 1536/365, then 3072/768, and now 6172/768. I could probably get 12 mbps if I wanted it, but my margins would be quite a bit thinner and I really don't want to spend more. I didn't really need the faster speeds, I just took advantage of them when a better deal came along. The same speed from Time Warner Cable would be about $15-20 more a month, which is why I chose the DSL. If $ wasn't a factor, I probably would've gone with cable. DSL is a little bit more of a pain to troubleshoot when things go wrong, whereas cable is a bit more like set-it-and-forget-it. Fortunately, I've had very few service interruptions with my telco provider (Windstream). I plan to continue with them unless they give me a reason to leave....See MoreCat Box Project -- Need Help Fast
Comments (24)I have a couple of cats who treat the litter box like a urinal. :( Even though they're neutered, they seem to be competing to see who can spray the highest -- fortunately, only in the litter box. I bought the largest plastic tote bin I could find. I cut a 6" high cat-access hole in one of the short sides, starting 7" from the bottom. I also cut an 8" x 12" hole in the lid a few inches back from the access hole. This lets in light, and keeps them from feeling trapped (cats like to always have an alternative exit). Then I filled it with a few inches of kitty litter, and clamped the lid on. Voila! Everything stays in the box, including the spray. I usually have to wipe down the inside of the lid when I scoop the box. But it sure beats having to clean the wall and floor! If you still have trouble with a cat hanging his rear out the access door when he does his stuff, you might get a smaller tote bin to put inside the big one. Cut the access door the same size and place, but leave the lid off the smaller tote. That allows for a space -- a sort of a mess lock -- between the inner door and outer door. You still have to clean that space when he misses, but at least the nasty stuff doesn't go on the floor. Pro tip: the easiest way to cut holes in plastic tote bins is to melt them with a soldering gun or iron with a small tip. Do it outdoors, because it makes noxious and possibly toxic smoke....See Morekayskats
