Things you might need if using a gas heater and info about gas
Comments (4)Hey Orchiddude, I agree thanks so much for the info. I have a few questions if you don't mind. I recently bought a small 6x8 GH & plan on using Natural Gas to heat it this winter. I have been looking at the Blue Flame heaters (199.00 at Lowe's) and have heard they are better than the infrared. Any thoughts?? I want to use NG over electric given that in the past few years I have gone thru 2 ice storms that have left me without electricity for several days. I also plan on putting the Gh right next to my house so that I can easily tap into the gas line right under my living room. Have a line that is capped off where a heater used to come thru the floor. Should be easy to ell over and come outside. I know that I will have plenty of plant materail to fill it up already...brought everything in with our first little cold snap and was overflowing on a 12x9 dropcloth...and of course love the idea of having to add more plants..haha I guess my only question again was with regard to Blue flame verses infrared, since it seemed you linked to one of each. I appreciate your thoughts. Thanks Rick...See MoreHUGE cukes - can I still Pickle them?
Comments (12)Thanks to all of you! I went ahead and skipped those particular ones for pickles this time. I'm giving them to friends at work instead ;) Great to know for future though! Because they are definatly still firm and solid. Next year I'm definatly putting those suckers on a trellis! It's so hard to find them all spread out like they are! The sweet pickle recipe that I'm using is one from my husbands grandmother. It's incredibly time consuming and starts off with a plain brine soak (no herbs) for *2* weeks prior. Then it'll take another 4 days or so to actually make the pickles themselves...it calls for boiling the syrup, pouring it over the sliced pickles - waiting a day - strain and repeat several times. :whew: I'm sure I'll be asking more dumb questions. As some of you already know...this is my first year with a real garden and first time canning/preserving. :) Thanks again! Laura...See MoreI might have made a huge mistake.
Comments (9)I can't comment from personal experience, but maybe this will help...I took a pressing class once and the instructor recommended pressing open when possible. She said that in the past there was the concern of bearding (I think that's what it is called when the batting comes through) if you stitch in the ditch and the top has been pressed open, but she said that today's battings are much better quality and this isn't usually an issue anymore....See MoreThis might be a HUGE question...
Comments (4)You need an engineer alright, but just what type is up for grabs. Civil Engineers plan cities and 'usually' have nothing to do with the physical aspects of building or soil structures. Might be better off starting with a 'Soils Engineer' who can determine what is first going on with the geology of your lot, then following up with a 'structural engineer' to determine how to make structural corrections to your existing building based on the determined soil conditions......See MoreLavender Lass
