Home & Garden - 5 June 2006

I live in Reno, Nv (Northern Nevada). I have a landscaped backyard with a flower garden, but I want to make a small vegetable garden that will I will plan and take care of by myself.

I am planning to start it just outside the fence to my backyard. I will be buying live plants instead of seeds. It will not be attached to the drip system that my other plants use (where's the fun in that?)

I plan to research the matter online and check with the nursery for information. I just wanted to also get advice from hobby vegetable gardeners themselves.

Thank you for your time:)

On our local news, there was a man who came up with a combination of ingredients for lawns. It's sounds crazy, but it's been proven to work. beer, ammonia,dishwashing liquid, and one other thing I can't recall. Has anyone heard of this?

Thanks.

The residue seems to appear where previously wet and is feathery light, as it is hard to sweep up. I have scrubbed floor with water and bleach to no avail. It has returned.

The fronds on my Australian Tree fern are curling downward after being planted in a pot. Is it going into shock? or do I need to fertilize? I'm pretty sure there is good drainage, rocks at bottom of pot and I did another Australian tree fern and it's doing fine.

I have a very old fridge(Philco), the coldest setting is 9 and the normal setting is at about 2 or 3, all I keep in there is beverages. Can you tell me why everything is frozen when I have it set between 2&3?

then went to turn on few days later. pop sound came from outside unit. had to reset main breaker at main panel. breaker reset but it made another "popping" sound ( sounded like an arcing short coming from outside unit again) main breaker did not trip 2nd time and outside fan is rinning but I dont think the compressor is.
When I'm at outside unit and switch off the disconnect I hear a Hum or buzz sound coming from the outside unit.

I am looking for a good way to clean the inserts that make a sippy cup spillproof. I do not have an automatic dishwasher and do everything by hand. I've got two small kids and they keep me busy, so sometimes the dishes sit for a while until I can get to them. I have trouble getting the inserts cleaned as they get juice and milk dried inside of them where I cannot clean it off by hand.

I removed an old light fitting in my 1980's house porch. As far as I know there is 1 switch that operates one light. There are 5 wires. 1 Black, 1 Red, 1 Earth and 2 grey.
My new light fitting has space for 3 (live, neutral and earth?). What do I need to do with the spare 2 wires? Which wires are which? Does my house need rewiring?
