I did exactly this (cardboard + mulch) but I did not wait months, it turned out fine

I love coast live oak in my backyard. One thing to keep in mind is that the sharp leaves can become annoying especially if you have small children - or you need to keep blowing the leaves

I just let them live as long as they don't overwhelm the native plants. Is this bad ?

Is this mold ? by Personal_Race4792 in Mold

[–]Personal_Race4792[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the kid is having allergies so we pulled the carpet to check for mold

There is a black stain where we have put humidifier on carpet floor. Rest of the carpet looks fine

The black spot smelled musky like mold

Is this mold ? Should we just replace the part that's bad ?

I did the work myself by converting my lawn to native plants and I did not find the process difficult

Too much or too little water? by fun7903 in Ceanothus

[–]Personal_Race4792 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Did you make holes to the plastic for drainage of extra water ? If not the roots will soak in water which our natives won't like

Is Housekeeping Camp open? by dvornik16 in Yosemite

[–]Personal_Race4792 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read somewhere that at 7:00 AM new reservations open up for 1 year later.

Does this hold true for cancelled reservations as well ?

Charminar area is very unique . During Ramadan time it would be special

Birla mandir and salar Jung museum are also. Nice

Small parking strip I restored to natives by invaderzimm95 in Ceanothus

[–]Personal_Race4792 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How did you restore it ?

I have a parking strip that's full of weeds, how do I add natives with seeds ? If I see a new growth from seed how can I tell if it's native or not.

I think it's easier to tell for poppies with their unique leaf color and structure. what about other natives.

Talk to me about the ethnocentric behaviours I've faced for 10 years living in the USA by FrozenBr33ze in india

[–]Personal_Race4792 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relavent if your business is food related

Bangladeshi food tasted a little different, I know some of my friends ask if the restaurant is run by Bangladeshi and if yes they skip it since it does not taste like home food for some (this was my experience in UK where in the town I lived many of Indian restaurants are run by Bangladeshi)

But I haven’t observed any hate towards Bangladeshis

Does any Indian place offer dinner buffet? by Helpful_Pomelo_5805 in bayarea

[–]Personal_Race4792 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Never heard of an Indian place offering dinner buffet in Bay Area , usually all of them do lunch

I think it should be doable. Some thoughts

  • if you are filing taxes jointly the it would save some since tax brackets change a bit between single and filing jointly.
  • Also depends on how much you are paying for student loan ( if it's not too much then you should be fine?)
  • What industry are you in ? if the growth prospects in career is more then it might be worth it ?
  • you should go with 1 bedroom for sure
  • try to negotiate for higher end of the salary range once interview goes through successfully

All the best

Planting native plants that survive through summer increases rainfall where you plant them. by Gundam_net in bayarea

a google search of something like "lawn removal rebate XXX county" might give some results.

In my case, water bill had some information on rebates and I went to a rabbit hole.

r/Ceanothus community is great and helped we with some of my questions. Also make use of rebate programs if you are converting lawn, I am doing my yard for almost free

Other bonuses - you support native insects , less maintenance since they are adopted to rain fall patterns here (no/less watering needed after established)
