Wet Insulation - What's Normal vs. Damaged??
Comments (6)I did addtional online research today and confirmed that any damaged insulation needs to be removed even if it is "dry" now. The outside water introduces different mold spores into the insulation that can be resistant to the borax that is in there. This means that it very likely can grow mold and once it gets started the mold will thrive in the old newspaper material that makes up blown in cellulose. I also learned that you shouldn't hang dry wall until the insulation has dried out to below 25% moisture content and that the final moisture level should be below 15% once it is all said and done. I just went by the house at lunch and thankfully the insulation was all marked for removal by the project manager and the roof was almost finished. Now I just have to make sure that the insulation isn't "recycled" by the contractor and put right back up again. My faith in the builder is totally shot. Right now I don't trust him as far as I can throw him. He's lied, manipulated, and delayed the project in more ways than I can count. The next question is do we fire his @** or hang in there and watch him like a hawk, sweating everything until it is finished? The region we are in does not have many contractors to choose from and at this stage of the project my involvement level would likely be the same if we switched to a different contractor or if we stayed. Either way it's going to be more work, more money, and more stress. Sigh, why do people build houses anyways! =)...See MoreCactus physical damage

Comments (9)Agree w/ken on the large leaves and I would not worry to much BUT the little baby leaf above that big leaf (2nd pic) what is going on with the very tip. How much water are you giving it in Salt lake. Apples need a lot of water. If not on a drip, dig a depression moat around the base of the tree and fill with water. Remove any grass or weeds from the trunk out to the edge of moat berm. Depth s/b about 2" deep and about 3' out from ONE side of the trunk(6' in dia.)now you can use the hose, water on dribble. Fill up the depression with water. Slow and deep. .......................................Use the "fruit and orchard forum" maybe it will work a little better for ya...See MoreWhat's going on with my cactus?
