  1. Landscaping Tips For Dummies

    I wasn't trying to discount anything, I was trying to use actual proven methods to prevent people from doing harm. A lot of things are good for a quick fix, but they aren't meant to be used long term for the simple fact they are damaging. Ammonia is tough to put on your lawn, because the...
  2. Landscaping Tips For Dummies

    Plant it further away from your house. In most cases, the tree was there first, and that's the only reason it did so good to begin with. If the house was there first, the problem is one that could take 7-10+ years to wait out. What happens, even when a tree with shallow roots is uprooted in a...
  3. Landscaping Tips For Dummies

    Weed control was the topic being discussed :) Once a lawn is established, it's hard to screw it up unless you just flat out quit caring for it. It's more the lawn self regulating after it's established than it is homemade stuff actually doing something for it. If you have a great solid lawn...
  4. Redskins Exercise 5th Year Option on Ryan Kerrigan

    I don't recall saying either one of them did. You're too quick to jump to conclusions, because you have a boner for Orakpo. I said potential doesn't win games and consistency does. Would you rather have a team full of consistent solid players, or a team full of guys who aren't living up to their...
  5. Landscaping Tips For Dummies

    Because of the weather in your area, you should try something called fine fescue. It isn't as popular up there as Kentucky blue grass, so it could be harder to find, but it does better in that type of climate than any other grass. It will be listed under fine fescue or chewing fescue, depending...
  6. Landscaping Tips For Dummies

    All of the homemade concoctions you see online are bogus. Literally every single one of them. Soap mixtures don't kill weeds, vinegar doesn't kill weeds, and boiling water doesn't kill weeds. What it does do, is burn away what's visible on the surface, while the roots keep spreading. Eventually...
  7. Redskins Exercise 5th Year Option on Ryan Kerrigan

    I noticed the talks about Kerrigan and Orakpo are always the same. People always point out Kerrigan's consistency, and talk about Orakpo's potential. So, at what point does it become a reality that the potential is a fairytale? If you're supposedly never playing up to your potential, maybe you...
  8. Landscaping Tips For Dummies

    It's not that you're doing anything wrong, it just goes back to what I said about Scott's being experts at marketing. I really can't think of any other company that is that good at marketing a totally bs product than they are. The stuff comes in really thick, and it looks amazing, so people...
  9. Landscaping Tips For Dummies

    Normally, yes. Fall is almost always the best time of year. The reason being, it's usually 80s and humid this time of year around here. THat allows the grass to come up great, but kills it with fungus within weeks. THis year though, the weather has been so perfect that I would recommend seeding...
  10. Landscaping Tips For Dummies

    It's the time of year when the weather finally turns nice, and people decide to spend billions improving their lawns and landscapes. Unfortunately for most, they don't have the knowledge to buy the proper tools or products, and end up spending good money on terrible products, and spend more...

  12. Summer Garden Time

    My Okra is hating the weather. Two thirds of mine tried to die, but I did CPR on them, and I think they might make it. When people told me you really need to give a lot of water to plants in a raised garden, they weren't kidding. I feel like I'm doing it to the point of excess, but it still...
  13. The Name Change

    The same could be said toward those who think it's racist. This is exactly why nobody has a "sit down". Neither side will ever agree with the other. The keep the name crowd is fine with that. The other side isn't. And since the anti-name crowd can't switch the opinions of the pro-name crowd...
  14. The Name Change

    World To Harry Reid: Drop Dead Already. I'd rather crank a rusty corckscrew into my ears and soothe the wounds with rubbing alcohol, than ever hear him speak again. I'd rather saw the cap of my skull off with floss and perform a self lobotomy with chopsticks, than ever attempt to process the...

    Amateurs........put about a half cup of water in it. Somewhere around the edge, there will be room for the water to seep underneath it. When the water seeps underneath it, stick it in the freezer. Two things will happen.......the plate, because I'm assuming it is ceramic, will contract. Also...
