Which direction to direct water?
Comments (1)"...it seems like most people send it to the back of their yard." One doesn't arbitrarily select the general direction that water must flow. It must go toward the lower elevation and the path out of your neighborhood. Your yard must be higher than at least one adjacent yard or the street. It's not clear in the photos, but it looks like the neighbor behind you might be lower. If so, then that's the general direction water should flow. Since only one elevation line (708) is shown in the first photo, it can't be determined from that where the lower elevation is. If you can see a wider view and find other elevation lines, that would give you an idea of the neighborhood topography prior to development. It would only give you a general idea, not specifically how it lays today....See Morewhich of these plants will look good in one pot?
Comments (26)Yeah, I am strongly considering another light fixture. I am very happy with the one I've got, but it won't fit on lower shelves - I need to shave off about an inch off the 13-inch depth of the fixture. Thinking of sawing grooves on the sides of the fixture, so that it can be slid into the shelving unit. Looks like it can be done. There are four shelves for plants with the fifth top shelf for the fixture itself. I am definitely not getting four fixtures in total - thinking on hanging the lights every other shelf, but setting pots looser, so that some light reaches the lower shelves, where more shade tolerant plants will live. >> are you combining [plants] because of limited light/shelving? Several reasons. I like the look of full pots. Aesthetics can be improved (I would not do it otherwise). Experimenting with combos is interesting. Limited space with good light (plenty of other space though). All of these are my reasons. >> another thing I would do - hang smaller plants off the sides, elevated mid-shelf to maximize exposure. Yes, I also thought of that. I deliberately bought the 4-foot wide light fixture for the 3-foot wide shelf to max the light availability for plants, and because 4-ft fixtures are so much more widely available. Those plants off the sides of the shelves are hopefully benefiting from the light, as well as from slightly higher humidity because plants are grouped....See MoreWhich diswashers?

Comments (7)We did one panel dishwasher and one non-paneled dishwasher. I like the arrangement. However, I think a dishwasher on either side would have had its pros as well (more space on both sides of the sink for example.) It does not look awkward at all. I think the key was having one be a paneled DW (Bosch was what we bought for paneled.)...See MoreLooking for good portable A/C that does not draw in outside air
Comments (2)Window units do not directly draw in outside air, not by design or intention (unless a Fresh Air control is engaged, which opens a damper door to draw in a bit of outside air) ... but they're far from air-tight so there is leakage. Single-hose portable units use room air to cool the condenser, blowing it outside. Two-hose portable units pull in outside air through one hose, pass it through the condenser and blow it back out through the 2nd hose ... but there may be some cross-leakage, so a single-hose may be more suitable to combat your odor problem....See Morek9arlene
