I have become increasingly aware of the importance of trace minerals (micronutrients) in plant nutrition which is passed on to humans and animals. I'm wondering if most fertilizers that you buy at a nursery or a co-op come loaded with necessary trace elements or if I need to buy a supplement in addition to the regular fertilizer.

The clothes are getting holes in them before they're even put away i.e. when they are in a pile awaiting ironing. Not sure if it's enough to put a cedar block or something on top of them.

I'm looking for a handheld, wet/dry vacuum cleaner (corded or not) for a particular purpose. I need this vacuum to be able to pick up wads of lint and it may or may not run into the occasional pocket of water. Also, the ideal vacuum of the above-described nature would have a continuous use time of at least 2 hours.

Any helpful information? Thanks.

My dorm room came with a desk lamp but it's really boring. I can't take the lampshade off and i don't want to buy a new lamp. Is there a way I can embelish it. Keep in mind I am a "starving student". Thanx!

I measured the diameter of the existing shower arm, 5/8". The diamter of the new handheld showerhead attachment is 3/4". So the new attachment is bigger than the existing arm. That is a 1/8" difference. Can that be made up with teflon tape? Is ther some sort of adapter I can use? Please help.

I have a vegetable garden in my new home that is overgrown with weeds about 3 foot tall. I would like to kill what's in there now, as there is also fencing and other garbage under the weeds. Would this ruin the soil for re-planting in the spring, or should I be OK after the winter? note- there will be snow on the ground over winter.
