LiTime has a sale on their LiFePO4 batteries (litime.com)
 

If this type of post isn't allowed, I can take it down. I am not affiliated with LiTime but I like their batteries since seeing Will Prowse's teardowns of them. They have some smaller battery options for DIY projects.

Any oil will work. I used canola.

Companion planting French Breakfast Radishes with my Sugar Snap Peas on the balcony in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

I plan to snack on them, but a search online showed them served sauteed with egg on toast. I imagine that avocado would work as well. Not sure how common it is in France though.

I repotted my sugar snap peas into a larger upcycled kitty litter container that I found in a dumpster. There was plenty of space, so I added radishes that only take 23 days to mature to maximize my use of space. What are your favourite companion plants?

The solution to my earwig problem (sh.itjust.works)
 

I have had earwigs eating my balcony garden crops, so I decided to try a solution I found online: add 50/50 soy sauce and oil to a container and leave it overnight. It was filled with earwigs the next morning! So I am setting up another trap with an empty tofu dessert container.

That being said, earwigs aren't universally bad. They help decompose plant material in a compost pile. However on my balcony, they were doing more harm than good. The ladybugs can stay :P

Shed. It's for a small lighting setup for when I use it up to a couple minutes at a time.

I'm looking for a small setup that allows the panel to be removed without removing screws from the roof and exposing holes.

Thank you for the tip.

I went from flowers on the same plant. Admittedly, I know nothing about pollination.

Thanks for the tip. I noticed they germinated quickly with most seeds sprouting whuch was a pleasant surprise.

I had filled a pot with seedlings, so the nursery pots I found at the side of the road came in handy today. I split them into their own pots which I will give away to friends and family once they grow larger.

My goal is to grow marigolds from seed for the first time to enjoy their summer blooms and repel pests from my veggies.

What's the best way to fill these holes in my laundry room? (sh.itjust.works)
 

My goal is to keep hot/cool air from seeping between floors. Is canned spray foam the way to go? Any recommendations? Pest resistance is a bonus.

How do I permanently get rid of this discolouration in my bathtub? (I have hard water) in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Unfortunately we do have a water softener but for some reason, there's still buildup.

I've been seeing improvements with powdered bar keepers friend but it takes several passes and still comes back unfortunately.

A common way to wash many dishes is a tub of soapy water to clean off food, a tub of diluted bleach water to disinfect, and a tub of water to rinse the dishes. It's used by wilderness guides around the world.
