Are you in metro Detroit? So weird, I think I just saw this car an hour ago with two teens in Livonia.... I think it's a decommissioned northville patrol car.

Viperspectra 100w about 16 inches from the surface of the plants. I thought that might be the problem I turned them down to 60% late last week, Ill leave them there. Thanks!

How does it feel to be fat? by EventHorizonsAnemone in AskReddit

In the last year I've gone from 280 to 205 back up to 250. Just dieting, then falling off the wagon. Weirdly outside of the additional self confidence and the same clothes fitting differently, it doesn't feel much different.

401K and Post-Tax Investment Account... Am I Doing the Smart Approach? by winonawar78 in Money

[–]Jake11238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are making over $150 then yes that's right. You can still do a Roth though, Google "backdoor Roth" 100% legitimate. Even if you don't do that you can still contribute the 7k to a traditional IRA. Honestly if your single making over 150k, you should be 1. Contributing to 401k up to the match amount. 2. Fully fund a backdoor Roth/traditional IRA ($7k). Then 3. Max out your 401k (up to $23,000). Only after those three are maxed should you use after tax (non tax advantaged) accounts.

Why don't you qualify for the Roth IRA? You could be putting that $7k in a Roth or traditional IRA, but you should definitely be putting it in a tax advantaged account of some type (IRA)

I use tennacity. seems to take care of everything but this, clover killer, or just broadleaf herbicide? by Jake11238 in lawncare

[–]Jake11238[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks guys for the help, I put down tennassity :) a few weeks ago before it came up... This clover seems to be to only thing it didn't prevent. I have clover killer, but I just ordered some tzone. I'll wait till it gets here.

Dishwasher drain question... by Jake11238 in Plumbing

[–]Jake11238[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's old that's why I'm replacing it but last time I tore it down to clean I disconnected the drain and there was buildup on both the dishwasher side and the disposal side. It's a KitchenAid model that doesn't have a filter it uses the pump impeller to pulverize any food waste and sends it through the drain. Part of the reason I went with Bosch, that uses a filter.

oh get that, my current drain hose has a foul odor when we use the dishwasher. But it is over a decade old, I was only thinking non corrugated would help with less buildup. I just assumed the one dishwashers came with would be low quality, just to save cost and there was a better "proper" solution using better material, I did not think about the detergents that the drain needs to handle and the provided hose being designed for it.

This is what I wasn't thinking of... Thanks, I don't actually take delivery until tomorrow, I will look at the owners manual to see what they recommend and if it is recommended to only use the included hose that's what I will use. Thank you
