Yes everyone that has an A/C unit in their house is loosing some 5 gallons per ton of A/C a day down the drain as condensation to the city who then filters it and sells it back to you. So yes a 5 ton unit will drip off some 25 gallons a day, So if you are going green why not put on your own filter and drop the water in your own pool, garden, or flower beds.

I hired a landscaper to do yard work. He asked me what my plans were for my back yard then told me one day he had a mason coming over to give me an estimate. What I have is the stone foundation of a barn that used to be attached to my house. The stone frame varies from 2’ – 7 high and consistently about 3 ‘ wide. The total length of all the walls comes to 80 ‘.

I love the looks of these stone walls and would like to have a two tier patio made by filling in the lowest levels with crushed stone then make kind of top.

The mason came to my home and said this is a mess. The reason the wall last 200 years was because the barn held it in place, but now that I tore the barn down, and because I live on a sloped property (this area is level though) the wall will inevitably cave. He said the only thing I can do is have the wall taken apart and rebuilt that will cost $15,000.00. Once done, the slope of my property and the roof of my house dripping rain water will cause it to fall eventually. He said “You have about $400.00 in materials here, but getting rid of it will cost more than $400.00.”

I do not have $15,000.00 to make a patio and I do not want to pay for him to take my stones away- I really like the way they look.

We put down grubex last year and moth balls this year. So far they are just as sassy as ever and my yard is a mine field to mow.

I'm not planning on doing it yet, but in a couple years after i get a good green house, it will be a possibility. i have 4 acres of grass, and i live in the middle of nowhere. how much would it cost to completely fill it with flowers, perennial and annual. thanks in advance. and i live in canada.

it use to belong to my little brother, but he no longer uses it.

it's about 3ft wide x 2.5ft tall.
do you think it will be sufficient for a compost bin.
there are pretty big gaps where the sides meet, but i'm thinking about adding extra wholes to it.

What do you think?

I have a rosebush I planted a few years back. It's a hybrid tea type, but I forget the specific breed. It bloomed beautiful, large blossoms the first couple of years I had it. After that it bloomed one year as though it were a floribunda type. In the two years since it hasn't bloomed at all, just grown to ridiculous heights. Anybody know why it's not blooming?

I am an amateur gardener that LOVES tomatoes. I have two tomato plants that i've been nurturing for some time now, and they seem to be doing well, however the tomatoes that i get from them (while delicious) have very tough skins. Does anyone know why this is, or how to remedy?
