What Technique Works Best (or Worst) for You?
Comments (10)I have mention this before, but the best technique I have used for my Tomatoes and Peppers for saving water / time, less maintance, healthier plans, and better yield is to work the soil with compost of fertilizer deep. I do it only on the holes i will plant them in, (about 12" deep), then much the area with my grass clippings everytime i mow my lawn. Instead of water them regulaly, now i only water them 2 to 3 times a week. If it rains, i might not even have to water them that week. Grass clippings keep the moisture nicely in there, and keeps the soil warm and adds protection from soil diseases. Plus i didn't have to deal with the weeds all spring/summer/fall!. You do have to keep adding the grass clipping because they do decompost pretty quickly. This year, I will be twicking this technique by collecting rain water, and adding it to the plans warm. Plans loves rain water and i do notice the grow faster and healthier with it. also, i will be prunning more to save space and increase yield, (adds more work for the yield is worth it because i don't have much space)....See MoreFridge only / Freezer only combo - What brands are best?
Comments (3)Do a search at the bottom, (NOT the top), of the main appliance page, (hit the back button on your browser) to get to the main appliance page, then search for Thermador Columns. You will see them compared to SZ, Mieles, as well as KA's. Everything you wanted to know about separate fridge/freezer combos. As a general rule, folks seem quite pleased with the Thermador columns. We have a 48" built in and paneled Jenn-air (had it for 8 years now), and love it, completely trouble free, cept for an ice maker that died after 5 years, but cheap and easy to replace. Alto the Jenn-air has plenty of space for the wife and I, (both the fridge and freezer sections), had I seen the columns back in 2006 when we bought the JA, I might have been "tempted", alto I'm not sure I would like the idea and the expense of running two separate cooling systems. We pride ourselves on our low electric bill, usually around $60 for a 2700 sq ft house, and I don't think we could do that running 2 separate appliances. To save you some work "searching", just click the "helpful Link" at the end of my post~~~~~it will take you to the Thermador/Miele~~threads I first mentioned, in this post. Good luck with your upcoming decisions!! Gary Here is a link that might be useful: Fridge/freezer separates...See MoreKitchen Reno: Which of these color combos do you like best?
Comments (139)Sheeisback, I like the Fallen Leaf as well, but it's a pain because it's a CSP color, which means it's patented and protected by BM, so you can't buy samples in the stores, and you have to buy it in Aura paint. You can get a sample directly from BM, for $10 plus shipping, then the $60 for the gallon of Aura...not worth it to me. Emmarene, the kitchen also has the hand hewn pine beams on the ceiling and the shiplap chalet ceiling, painting in BM White Dove. Have to go back and really go over cabinet options and colors. Thinking about a green or an ivory now since I'm concerned the plain maple will clash with the pine beams. I don't want any cabs with orange in them, and I don't want dark cabs....See MoreWhat nutrition/fertilizing method works best for you?
Comments (10)Some discussions of African Violet plants last forever. This is one of them. A problem we all face or faced when starting to get serious about raising African Violets is food. A couple of years ago, when I had this question, I spent hundreds of hours here and elsewhere looking for some sort of consensus. There really is none but there are two are three front runners. There are another two or three that really provide more possibilities for failure and problems than success. This is my opinion of what I have found to be true. Others will disagree and thats ok. I don't use Miracle Gro for anything. My first year or so of raising AV's were heavily punctuated with fertilizer related issues. This, largely caused by my living in an area with few specialty gardening shops. I ended up buying MG perlite, MG vermiculite, MG potting soil and MG peat moss. ALL OF WHICH CONTAINS UNKNOWN CONCENTRATIONS OF UNKNOWN FERTILIZERS. With the exception of a few experts (one of whom resides here) it is very difficult to achieve success with that many unknowns. I only use Optimara or DynaGro for food any more. I have supplements that I use from time to time but I vacillate back and forth between these two. Are there others? Yes. This is what I have found that works for me. My recommendation is that you eliminate all MG products, choose a non-urea food and keep notes on what you find. Good luck! My apologies to all of you MG users out there!...See Morededtired
