Huh. That’s what I need to get rid of these two damn euonymus alatus (burning bushes) in front.

House's worth of new ceiling fans. Replacing old builders grade stuff that made the house sound like a rail yard

Wow! I don't know much about what that should cost, but that sounds crazy!

We got a quote for windows. We learned to like the existing ones a lot more once we saw that....

Would love to keep what we have, but we’re starting to have issues. nothing major, other than the one thats cracked, neighbor kid shot one with a bb gun a few yrs ago( not on purpose). Plus there so old, they’ve lost that gas that is in between the 2 pane’s, so they’re not really keeping the heat out/cool in

 

[the_todd]

Where are you?

Knoxville you

@Orangeslice13 and the rest of all y’all

I thought about putting this in the gardening thread, but I figured it might get more eyes here.

I’m getting ready to create a pollinator garden bed in a long strip along the side road of our property. (It will look like pretty much nothing at all this year, of course.) I want to solarize - kill off current grass plus weed seeds - the area first with clear plastic.

The stuff I see online is 6 mil vs 3 mil (and one 1.5 mil) “construction film” and plastic sheeting. I’d like it to handle a month to six weeks of intense sun, plus occasional incursions by leashed dogs and their idiot owners, and then be able to fold it up and reuse in the future for similar garden starts.

Any opinions/ advice about 6 vs 3 vs 1.5 mil? Thanks!

PS: my phone replaced “solarize” with “solar oxen”, because of course, the second is a far more common term than the first.

I'm curious about these solar oxen

You’re going to have to touch it to get it to lay down.


you’re welcome

Well, my plan is to lay bricks over to hold it still and bake in the sun. Maybe pound in a few landscape staples. Let me know if that works for you.

Amateur. It would've gotten more eyes and better qualified eyes in the pube. I mean, you've pretty much got Slice and...well, Slice. Souce don't know crap and TFG lol. Yeah, good luck.

They’re all suburb-y over there. Other than a few ongoing threads, I don’t go there much.
