There isn't going to be a real good guess coming from any of us because there's too many variables. If you plant too much and can't sell it all, then there's always food pantries, churches, canning/freezing, friends and giving it away. If you don't plant enough, there's always the chance of running out/bugs destroying plants/ not turning out the way you wanted. It's always a crap shoot at first.

Sorry to hear about your trouble, Prettealady. Your story is more common than you know. I'm an insurance agent (since 1977) and it's very rare that I find condo/co-op policy that's written correctly. Most agents insure them like tenants policies, focusing on the personal property coverage (contents) and pay little or no attention to the dwelling or building limit, leaving most insureds gravely underinsured. Anyone paying (depending on area) less than $200 for condo insurance is likely underinsured. Your options are to complain to State Farm (not the agent), your State's insurance dept, and lastly, to sue. Agents carry E&O insurance that covers Errors & Omissions. I don't know all the facts, but on the surface, it appears your agent let you down. Good luck, Kevin

Thank you for all the great tips! It's an 18" V repeat and a 13 1/2" H repeat, so with that info I should definitely be able to figure it out. I mean with that info, a computer, graph paper, a cup of tea and quiet. I think it'll be my 2011 - 2013 project. Just this morning I got started on the end of my 2009 project (no, I am not joking): I removed the toilet (now sitting in the shower), baseboard and vinyl from the main floor bath. Later today (hopefully) an electrician is coming to "help" me install the radiant heat (I'll watch), and then Thursday and Friday mornings I'll be tiling!!! Do you know how excited I am to completely this project before the end of 2010? So that's why I aim l-o-w in terms of time-frame for wallpapering my bedroom. I mean, I'll either first put batting down and then the fabric, gimp, etc. or I'll have it made into wallpaper. Who remembers that sweetheart who installed the "beadboard" wallpaper on her ceiling a few years ago? I'm thinking of doing that as well. Just kidding! I'm thinking of *hiring* someone to do that! (vaulted ceiling) But I feel confident about the walls. Ignorance is bliss. Thank you! xo

If you look at the section detail you will see that the all-ultrex is cobbled together and can't have any realistic looking mullions. Its intended to compete with PVC windows and I guess it does that. Andersen PPG Flexicron epoxy paint is not as durable as a composite or aluminum cladding. It took me a lot of effort to cut into it with my fingernail but that would have done nothing to any kind of cladding. Your need for durability depends on the local climate and environment. Andersen Fibrex has been manufactured by Andersen for 25 years. That's longer than many PVC window companies have been in business. It has a low thermal expansion coefficient; a low thermal conductivity ratio; a high moisture resistance and a high flexural and tensile modulus. That makes it superior to extruded PVC.
