Can I cut a 50 degree angle with miter?
Comments (2)Further though on this subject leads me to conclude that the only way to get a 50 degree is to put the clapboard into the miter saw perpendicular to the fence, thus the 40 degree off vertical would result in the wood left behind with a 50 degree angle on it, i.e., I removed a 40 degree slice out of a 90 degree orientation. Not well stated I"m sure, but not a good idea either as the clapbords are only 6" wide, not a stable platform to run a power circular saw into....See MoreHelp ASAP, sealing driveway under 50 degrees
Comments (1)50 degrees is nothing, your good to go. Or you can wait till next July or Aug, when it's 90 or above outside....See MoreHow do you go from 1 Hoya to nearly 50 inside of 5 months?
Comments (5)I am marginally afraid of next growing season. Will once again have free reign on ordering/aquisitions, and that combined with the fact all these current darlings never seem to stop growing... Just saying, if I stop posting, send someone to come hack the vines back so I can flee my living room....See MoreWinter blues :( What's up with with some of my hoyas?
Comments (9)My house is fairly dry in winter and I don't have these problems. Can you describe the mix you use? Soil is one of those things that every grower tweaks over years to get the perfect mix that works for your environment, your watering habits, heat/humidity, etc. I use only coir and perlite, and for me and my environment and watering habits, it's perfect. For someone who lives in AZ where it's dry and hot, it would surly mean death to their plants. For someone with a heavy hand in watering, it wouldn't be loose enough. Some people add orchid bark to basically what I use. I find that makes the mix too loose and forces me to water more than is my habit. How long have you been growing Hoyas? If for several years, I'd guess you are right and it's probably the weird year you're experiencing, and there's probably little you can do about it. I don't know what kind of winters you have there, but ours are very harsh and I inevitably have a few casualties. But most of my Hoyas come through with flying colors. And I grow a lot of succulents as well... I don't have much trouble with them in winter, either, as long as I'm careful not to over-water. Denise in Omaha...See Morekristiviola
