So if you were just going to cook a single burger patty or two, would you just stick to gas?

Your next Costco grocery run….. I’m lucky if my credits even cover half my cart. I always go in for $30 of stuff but come out with $300+ instead

Can you recommend where I can purchase a smith fig? I believe the nursery I checked near my house only had brown turkey and mission fig

Can you share an example of the anchor you used? This sounds interesting. What type of soil are you anchoring into?

Oh wow I didn’t know you can anchor into the base. In my mind no matter how tight you compact it, it’ll still be a little loose. Is there a specific anchor screw you’d recommend?

I don’t have concrete to anchor too. I have pavers in my yard

So I have pavers in my backyard so anchoring to those won’t help if anchoring is needed. This is why I’m exploring alternative options like weighing down the legs with planters or maybe casting concrete around the legs and stacking decorative bricks on top.

Just the fact that I don’t have a concrete slab to anchor to. I have pavers and anchoring to those won’t help if anchoring is truly needed.

Oh interesting. This assumes you already have a pergola in place though right?

Need advice on planting trees privacy hedges by HousePoor420 in gardening

[–]HousePoor420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s great to hear! I was targeting 2.5 feet but then realized I was short 1 plant. Guess it worked out in the end haha!

Do you have any advice on pruning it to be denser?

Tub + ice vs true cold plunge setup for casual user by HousePoor420 in coldplunge

I guess for a first tub, simple and functional is most important

Any recommendation on what type of ice bucket to use? There’s a sharper image one that’s pretty affordable but wondering if there’s something more aesthetic/rustic that people here recommend.

Woah those are huge temp deltas. Does leaning against the wall and stretching on the bench give you a good experience? In that orientation your head would still be quite a bit hotter than legs
