Basic advice on Garden Tractors
Comments (13)I have a cub cadet GT3235 tractor. It has shaft drive with a locking diff, hydraulic steering and deck lift, shaft driven deck and shaft driven cast iron transmission. It would handle 6 acres with no problems. I bought mine as a left over so the dealer discounted it significantly. Normally this tractor is around $7000 with a deck, but I was able to get it for $5200. Cub cadet had financing available with no interest for the first year. I paid mine off within the first year so I didn't pay any interest. I suggest contacting a local dealer and see what they have. You might be able to get good deal on a new tractor like I did or maybe a used one that was traded in. I recently checked the website of the dealer I bought mine from had my same tractor but used for $4500 or so with the deck and less than 100hours on it....See MoreTucson Newbie needs vegetable advice please
Comments (10)The books in my library include: - Gardening for Beginners: How to Grow Vegetables in Arid Climate by Cromell, AZ Master Gardner Press - Desert Harvest, A Guide to Vege Gardening in Arid Lands by Nyhuis - Desert Gardening Fruits & Veges by Brookbank - Gardening in the Deserts of Arizona - Mary Irish I have more, but you get the picture. Thanks for explaining, that the "pots get hot and that kills the roots." Frankly, that never would have occurred to me, that roots in the ground stay cool, while those in the pot get much hotter. I have moved the pots so they get a bit less sunlight. Since I can't (yet) get the plants into the ground, my plan is to wrap the pots with reflective material (cheap space blankets) that will reflect the heat away from the pots and thus keep the roots cooler. All other suggestions and ideas are welcome. Thanks!!...See Moremicro mini sinningia basic culture--advice please?
Comments (3)Rick - remember me? I sent you the White Sprite sinningias. Do you remember the type of soil that was used packing the tubers sent to you? That is what I grow my micro mini sins in, it is a fine grade germination mix from Fafard and sinningia do very well in it. Keep it simple, no need for exotic soil mixes to grow these guys. Use a fine textured soil mix - really don't think you need to go to the extent of chopped long fibered sphagnum, etc. You know that mini sins grow, bloom and then want to go dormant, right? Your plants may just need a rest, let them dry out and sit dry for a month or so, then spray them down with water to see if they will sprout and grow again. The dry foliage needs to be cleaned off during dormancy, sometimes they will signal you with green that they want to get back to growing after being dry and dormant for a period without first giving them H20 - it sounds from your description that your plants are going through their normal cycle and it isn't anything to be overly concerned about. Here is a picture of my S. pusilla growing in Fafard germination mix right out of the bag. I DIDN'T need to stand on my head and pee into my pocket to get these to grow well and neither should you. Good luck with your sinningias!...See MoreWall paper newbie needs basic decorating advice, please!
Comments (15)Hi Srg215, Wow...well, I'm not totally sure yet but I seem to recall the designer saying "2-3,000" for this carpet (bound as a rug), approximate size 10x14. If that's bound as a rug and delivered, I guess $2000 isn't that much more than $12 0/sq ft, but I'll find out the exact price this week and let you know. I had no idea I could find the same exact product for potentially so much less. Can you give me the info re: your Bergen store and what they call it? Stark calls the pattern "Westfield" and this green color "Spring", or is that only what Stark calls it? Thanks so much. Madeline...See MoreLynnNM
