My neighbours kid keeps kicking his ball into my garden and trashing my plants, help?
Hi,
My neighbours son is 15, and keeps kicking his ball on purpose into my garden……..he thinks its hilarious, ive told him not to til im blue in the face, but he continues………hes ruined my grass and broken loads of shrubs……we have a park two minutes down the road, and loads of green space nearby…..he just does it to wind me up, help!
If I were you, I’d knock on his door when you know the parents are home and tell them that you’ve had to spray insecticide all over your plants and you’re so worried that their son may become ill because of the ball going through the plants. If this doesn’t help, tell the boy and his family that he and his ball are not welcome in your garden and if he goes into your yard again, you will have to file a police report for him trespassing.
Why are car companies/plants shying away from the traditional manual transmissions in automobiles?
I noticed Dodge Chrysler and a lot of car companies have that auto shift gear box. That’s so wack, compared to the traditional clutch. It just goes from side to side for gears, no more clutch. It’s really still an automatic to me because the clutch is gone. I see now why American cars are not being bought as much as foreign cars now. We (car consumers) want the traditional clutch to come back in effect. It’s the sportscar feel behind the wheel, you can’t feel it behind a Dodge Charger because there’s no clutch anymore, no matter how fast you make it. My favorite car is the Corvette, however, if someone tried to sell me a automatic I would not take it because it wouldn’t feel the same without the manual transmission. What’s your opinion on this?
The auto makers make cars that sell. While there is a small market for manual transmission cars, the great demand is for the automatics. There are many people in this world who can not drive a stick. Others can drive, but prefer an automatic transmission.
How can you remove the smell from plant food on linens?
I accidentally left some plant food in a poorly ventilated storage closet and now everything (and I mean everything) smells really terrible – almost like animal urine. I would guess it’s from the nitrates, but nothing seems to work! I’ve tried laundering, baking in the sunshine, air fresheners and a vinegar solution spray. Can anyone help?
A good washing and hanging on the clothes line for a couple of days has always worked for me. Try hanging them on the line longer.
The Mariposa
Elsewhere in the world, the Mariposa is known as the Butterfly orchid. Scientifically, it is called the Phalaenopsis, and it is arguably the most graceful of all orchids. Of course, it resembles a butterfly in flight and it is the most common orchid plant in Asia, Europe, and America. Half of the Phalaenopsis species and varieties worldwide are found in our country. There are countless hybrids … Making an Olla plant self watering clay pot on the potters wheel demo how to make a Ingleton Pottery
Fertigator Mojo Feeder Tops The List For Fertigation Systems
Those looking for a fertilizer injecting system otherwise known as fertigation have a couple new cool little systems to contemplate about. Fertigator has always been one of the best manufacturers of fertigation systems and technology, but the Fertigator Mojo feeder tops the list as the best fertigation system we have found available to date. The benefits of the Fertigator Mojo are huge. The system supplies grass and plants with small doses of fertilizer on a consistent basis through a pre existing irrigation system. This allows the plants to thrive on in a nutrient rich environment. The Mojo will make your yard the neighborhoods idol. The system and fertilizer is also much cheaper than calling out a pest control operator that charges $60.00 a visit to spray down your yard once a month. Fertilizing your yard with the old out dated method results in over feeding as the plants use up the nutrients during the first couple days after treatment. After a week or two the lawn endures a time of near starvation, until the next chemical treatment. This process is repeated month after month and is very stressful on the plants which causes problems down the road. The system works by reading the sprinkler system timer to determine when and how much fertilizer should be injected. The system is very precise so there is no over spraying possible as in some other systems. The fertilizer is pulled from its container and injected into the proper valve for distributor on the yard or plant material. Each zone will be programmed to deliver exactly the right amount of fertilizer for that zone. Injection rates can vary from 0 to 19 pulses for every two minutes to eight minutes. All this makes the Fertigator Mojo by far the best fertigation system on the market at a reasonable price as they go for about $299.25 on average, some of the other off brand systems with less options we have found to be a headache and can cost as much as $1000.00 for a single home unit.
