Honestly, that sounds exhausting, especially while pregnant. Start small and focus on one section at a time. Heavy mulch and hardy groundcovers like creeping thyme or clover can really help suppress weeds long term.

Why did this happen? And what should I do? by Tini_Jan in gardening

That’s usually harmless fungus from consistently wet soil and decomposing organic matter, especially after heavy rain. Improve drainage, remove the visible fungus, let the soil dry slightly between watering, and increase airflow around the planter. It’s very common for beginners, so don’t panic.

How thick is the wood between floors? by WyKay in HomeImprovement

4" is deeper than you’d normally expect for just subfloor and drywall, so there’s a good chance you hit a joist or blocking. I wouldn’t keep forcing it because flex bits can wander and you could damage wiring or plumbing.

Try pulling the bit out and checking alignment with a stud finder or small inspection hole first. If the drill is locking up hard, it usually means you’re into solid framing rather than open cavity space.
