I tried to plant shasta daisies and grape tomato seeds thinking that they wouldnt grow but they did. If I plant them in the ground, will they come up next year or wont the roots be strong enough to last the winter? What should I do with these seedlings? (I am in zone 6) Would they grow into mature plants if I brought them inside and planted them next spring?

Thanks for any advice you can give me!

Just bought a house and was expecting to finish the basement. Some problems I have found while planning this. Window sills are too high for code. Floor is not level. Unsure if space between floor and ceiling is enough for code. On the plus side, there is no moisture on the walls. Basement is completly under ground exept for about 2 feet for windows. Any comments would be appreciated.

I would like to finish my basement. My windows are grade level now, but the bottom sill is too high for local codes. I was told I need to use an egress. Any comments or suggestions with this.

i need to take the cover off the air filter thing to take it to home depot to get a new one...but i don't have a flathead screwdriver. i don't want to drive all the way to home depot, come all the way back, get the filter, then have to return.

is there something to substitute for a flathead besides a butter knife? keeping in mind that i have one tool (a phillips head screwdriver).

I could replace my current unit as part of some remodeling I'm doing, but I could also wait. I'm interested in knowing if there are greater improvements in efficiency in the offing!

The particular anchor that I am looking for is made of flat spring steel, folded to look like a "T". Can somebody help me with a name or manufacturer? I thought that I had purchased them at either Ace Hardware, or True Value, but they no longer carry them.

My insurance company will not reimburse me for some of the items that I have legitimately claimed because they say I shouldn't have stored them in my garage. After finding this out I thought I should have claimed stuff stolen that I didn't even have to make up for the other. This would have been fraud of course. What are your thoughts?

In my basement i get these creepy crawly bugs. They have a lot of legs and crawl really fast. They have antennae. They're usually a brownish color. Some are very small, but most are about 2-3 inches.

Also, i have these very small spiders that just started coming out. They're pretty cute (but creepy too). They sort of jump when they're crawling.

If you have any info, please let me know. I really hate bugs and want to know how to get rid of them. (And the spiders just interest me)

I don't actually know that this is what it is. I had someone house sitting for me and when I came back there were these little white spots on the coffee table and a small semi circle. How do I get rid of them?
