How do you get and keep zoysia grass out of flower beds?
Comments (5)Thanks esh & bagsmom! I figured that would be the only way to keep that stuff outta the beds. I was hoping someone might know of something that would kill the grass without hurting my plants. As if!! I know its asking alot but I am so frustrated. GGG, it sounds like you are describing my sisters yard who has the zoysia. I knew that was its nature but since so many people have it they would have some easy way to control it. grrrrrr Thanks again everyone!!...See MoreCountertop combi steam oven?
Comments (2)This unit should fit the bill. You may have a bit of a time finding one, as I think it's been discontinued. EXPO Design centers used to have them, and if you find one it should be a deal. They were in the $1250-1500 range. Self contained, 120v. Here is a link that might be useful: Sharp steam oven...See MoreGetting Desperate, please help!
Comments (5)Do the 24" cabinet plus 25" sink. This is about axx-covering, so sign a release absolving the installer of all responsibility for problems arising from having the flange overlap the cabinet or go find one who takes pride in, and relies on being protected by, doing a good job for his clients. Yes, there could be issues if something went wrong and the counter had to be removed to get the sink out, but, heck, installing a water line to the kitchen is FAR, FAR, FAR, FAR more likely to result in problems, yet plumbers do it everywhere every day. And just how many people have you ever known who had to have the counter removed to get the sink out? As opposed to someone who just posted the other day that her hanging sink fell down? Not that that happens often, either; this IS just a gathering point for people with problems. BTW, DH and son chiseled out both sides of our 30" sink base AND a bit from the next cabinet over, to fit in a 32+" flange. I wasn't about to give up the possibility of an adjacent 15" drawer stack for more scouring powder room....See MoreDesperate! Please help!
Comments (6)First off: Olympic Mountains is not the same as Fog Mist. They are close but not the same. All these colors are so close in terms of their DNA. Name: HueFamily Value Chroma Olympic Mountains: 3.56 Y 8.62 0.81 Gray Mist: 4.88 Y 8.69 0.80 Fog Mist : 2.62 Y 8.65 0.9 Winds Breath: 2.87 Y 8.57 0.88 The only real difference is that Fog Mist and Olympic Mountains sits a little closer to the Yellow-Red Hue Family than Gray Mist which sits almost in the middle of the Yellow Hue Family. The fact that you are seeing a green/yellow hue is odd and means your light is not balanced. Do not buy a full gallon without testing both. Buy Quarts. Yes it will cost you a bit, but testing is always worth it. Paint large poster boards and not the wall. Move them around during the day if you want to. The current paint color can trick your eye by "changing" the color on the board. It's best to have a neutral grey background, but even if you can't, you will get a good sense of the color in your space. Change your lightbulbs to something close to the 4000K as a warm white bulb might be what is causing every color to go murky. I just added Winds Breath to the list of Data, and it is nearly identical to Fog Mist, so they will probably act the same. A bump in Chroma (colorfulness) is what you might need to counter the murkiness. I will look for something similar to Gray Mist and get back to you. Hope this helps....See MoreMoses, Pittsburgh, W.
