I am a newbie, my interest in hydroponics began 4 weeks ago when I was given an assignment in a classes at the Community College. We were told to use what was available to us and not to go out and buy something. I did some research and decided to try and grow some vegetables using hydroponics. I built an ebb and flow system which turned out great no problems. I also built a NFT system using 2 old rain gutters to grow different varities of lettuce. I like the idea of the 5 gal buckets for individual plants what type of system are you using in those?I haven't planted tomatoes yet, I didn't have room for them. I think I'd like to use the 5 gal buckets can you e-mail me the info. donnie1354@hotmail.com

Hi i'm not getting the first two pix?? gary

I have about 3 dealers around the same price. They vary in different ways. 2 dealers include the Trane rebate, 1 is not in the rebate program yet as he is new. He said that he is reducing his price to compensate for it until he gets into the program-he is one I quoted the prices from. On my most recent email to him very late last night, I asked him, "I heard you about the Trane rebate program but let me know if it goes through, wouldn't it save you money as well?" I haven't received a reply yet. Was the prices mentioned good? Concerning the tax credit, One company has it in its estimate but I am keeping it separate. I want to compare apples to apples. The other two don't put it in their estimate because it is up to me to follow through on it. Interestingly, the "A" rated company from the BBB is the one that includes it in the estimate, The "B-" and the new company don't. All the companies (about 7-10) said that they clean out the lines. Only one, the "B-" company replaces them. I wished the average temps were true. One thing about this area is the humidity. It is dripping. Again, Thank you for your help. I really appreciate it.

I prefer the art to be hung like art on the walls, as was recommended when this came up before. However, I'm feeling a bit lost as to how to be helpful here to you. I STILL like the original tile posted here. A lot. I also like the blue and white coral-like tile and the blue and white circle flowery things which almost could pass for starfish. With the latter two, it seems like they would both combine nicely with white subway if you just wanted an accent tile over the range area instead of taking the pattern all the way across the kitchen. I'm a sucker for arabesque tiles almost all the time, but I do think they showcase better where there is a larger area between counter and uppers than more narrow. And, I'm not as big of a fan of powder, sky and pastel blues for your condo at all. The tile you can peek at in the tropical dining room pic is intriguing if you like the idea of going more towards aqua and less towards the blues - but can't see enough of it to really tell what it is. The pic aktillery posted of the modern bungalow shows again how a kitchen can be basically neutral put still benefit from some color (I happen to love that counter, wonder what that is).
