What are the pods that form on my stellas after they have flowered? And do I leave them on the plant for re-bloom or do I pull them off?

Hi there everyone,

I've been trying for a while now to find the perfect home - you see, I have the money for my dream home, a light house.

Does anybody know of a good website that has a large range of different homes?

Any help will be appreciated, as I have extremely limited sources where I live.

Thank you so so much! ;-)

I have a wicker couch and coffee table on my covered patio that I bought used 2 months ago and it is already showing signs of mold in between the wicker! Is my set destined to be ruined or is there something I can do to get the mold off and /or something I can treat the wicker with to prevent more mold from spreading?
Thank You

I need to paint my sliding closet wooden doors. They have already been painted white with normal paint but I did it on the grass and crap got stuck to it. They were originally wood stain doors but an ugly color. I covered that though. What I want to do now is spray paint the doors white since that paint doesnt chip off so easily. Am I able to do this without sanding it down or no? Any other tips??

THANKS

I'm stripping some wallpaper... well, to be accurate, it's 2 -3 layers of wallpaper (from before I bought the house). The trouble is, the last layer is proving really difficult to remove

It's a shiny, non-porous surface that won't seperate from it's backing paper. Therefore my usual method of soaking with a sponge and then scraping it off isn't working as well as usual.

At the moment I'm having to soak, scrape around the edges, remove a bit and expose more backing paper, soak that, scrape, removing a bit more etc.

At this rate I'll still be doing it in a months time!

Anyone have any better suggestions? (apart from knocking down the wall - I have toyed with the idea!)

Thanks,
Paul.
