Please...please give me advice
Comments (8)Ouch and double crapola...After the extensive research I have done on these seeds. I have found they need wet soil for the first three days. You were only misting? I would drench the soil with water and see what happens. Make sure you use a dome and heat. I have had decent germination on mine some did not come up but that is to be expected. Linda how are yours doing? Eloise is your soil wet too? I know you are trying outside. They should be soaked prior to planting too.....This is what I have learned about them...Tj I will see what I have left after my RR'S They are mixes though and not named just pictuers of the mixes. I do have double plants but they are slow growers. They come up and just sit there. I have ones I did a fewmonths ago and they are still the same size...Weather? No sunlight and not under lights....If they get bigger maybe in summer I can send you some of my doubles...Barb...See MoreI owe more than the house is worth, and it isn't selling. :(
Comments (150)when we bought our house the broker, a LIFELONG friend of the family(her daughter and i were born on the same day in the same hospital just minutes apart), highly recommended that i go with an ARM to keep my payments low. she said research showed that most folks either refi or sell within 5 years anyway, so my rate should never change. i flat out refused this because i had seen my grandmother almost lose her house back inthe early 90's to an ARM adjustment. i don't think SHE was trying to con us, i think she fell for the industry wide hype of this is what is best for MOST people. i really think that is the problem, too many people wanted to buy big and an ARM was the only way to do it. they figured the house would continue to appreciate and they could either sell or refi before the ARM hit. in many cases they were just glad to get a home and did not even realize that they had an ARM. yes, a good bit of this was predatory lending. and yes, a larger portion was simply a furtherance of the American way of life, spend money you don't have cause you can pay it back cheap(at least at first)! i feel sorry for the people who were tricked into ARMs and for people who have had life changes that made a once affordable payment no longer possible. but i do not feel sorry for people who made the largest purchase of their life based on what they pay a month RIGHT NOW, and totally ignore what they WILL pay down the road. i almost wish that the law required all potential buyers to take AND PASS a financial planner course that specifically educated them on how things can and will change on a mortgage. BTW, i never have believed in buying a "starter" home. in my region of the country you rent a home for a few years and then buy your home you plan to live out your life in. this is what my wife and i did, we rented for 6-7 years adn then bought. before buying, we did a lot of research and found we could afford more than we thought. we were pre-qualed for over 250k, but bought a 145k house because it suited our current and future needs. that 145k got us ~2400 sq ft on 4 acres. we could have bought a house in town for half that and still been in a good neighborhood, but we wanted outside city limits....See Morecabinet bottoms are ugly - what to do?
Comments (17)Why do you have to apply a skin if you are going to paint? I'd certainly try this first: Just skim the bottom with a filler if the wood is rough, sand lightly, prime, and paint. You can do one cab at a time if you want, so it won't be an overwhelming project. And you only need to do the ''bottoms'' that you see. The improvement will be huge. I an not sure that applying light rails will help much if at all. They work fine when the viewer's eye is above the plane of the cabinet bottoms, but you are looking up at the cab bottoms. Why not make a mock up light rail to check it out? Just fold a piece of cardboard and stick it flat on the inside cabinet bottom and let it hang down 2 inches below the door. See how much that helps....See MorePink Hydrangea ??
Comments (2)Springwood's advice is great if you are in his zone, but if you are colder, wait longer. I can get frosts until the end of May and I've had Hygrangeas start growing fairly late, so I typically wait until the end of the month....See Morebleusblue2
