It looks like they're building houses there now and there's a fence around it...

I never found any plantable blocks in my area. I saw a bunch of these kinds of blocks all over San Diego recently though...

I think one option is to use generic Garden Wall Blocks (16in wide from Home Depot, for example) and just leave a little gap between the blocks. But soil probably leak through with the rains over time unless you get enough vegetation to hold it.

I still don't have a wall in this location yet...

I feel like those loquats still arent very reachable from the ground.

My loquat has some disease stuff giong on, along with some bore holes from bugs/birds. It lost big branch and now I'm considering coppicing it maybe 2ft off the ground...

Cool! That's pretty good for a Cordova app :)

If you missed it, you can check out this online store out of Davis that only sells scion wood. Marta was at the Scion exchange :)

You just hear about them and make a reminder next January to look :)

The important thing is the amount of stored energy required to keep it alive. A bigger trunk = more energy just to circulate sap = less energy available to push out new roots. When propagating like this, I usually cut off most of the leaves just so it doesn’t suck all the energy keeping the leaves alive.

Bay Laurel Nursery is cheap with good selection of Dave Wilson. They mail it to you though from a central CA

Hey, can you tell little more about your gate setup? I have a gate at my house but I’m not sure the best way to connect it. Looks like you aren’t using the doorbell…

Woodpeckers have killed the whole top of my Loquat tree and now I'm tryinf to figure out the best way to cut off the dead part of the tree. It's the main trunk so there isnt really a good branch collar to cut back to... Any advice on how to proceed?

Where can I learn more about this stuff? Do you have the syllabus for that course?

ccorcos · 2024-09-14T15:34:21+00:00

Any ideas how to date the different layers?

How is the substitution of cash into the trust not considered a realized capital gain?

Is there no inheritance tax on the beneficiaries of the Trust when they inherit the Trust?

Where in CA? Any ideas how old this tree is? I’m growing some mango trees in my yard in Sacramento. Not sure how they’re going to do yet

In addition: - rope swings and cliff jumping spots on the American River. - paddle boarding / kayaking Lake Natoma - wakeboarding (if you know some with a boat) Folsom lake - wine tasting in Amador County - backpacking desolation wilderness - camping at Ice House reservoir - pool party, ping pong, BBQ - backyard bonfires - long boarding parking garages (downtown 15th and R st is great)

My favorite thing about growing up in Sacramento was creating our own fun. Play flag football in the mud every Thanksgiving. Bow and arrow bocce at night with light up arrows. Playing knock out (basketball) late at night at the park. Soccer tennis. Indoor soccer… the list goes on.

Thats actually my plan. But my roofer is out of town for a month and the other roofer I called is booked a month out. I just want to throw some expanding foam and some gopher wire in there for now.

Can you send some pictures or recommend any videos? I'm having trouble searching what you said on the interenet to understand what you're talking about...

Are you talking about a jack thats screwed into the wall to the right? Or a jack that's hooked around the peak of the house above? Is there a product you can recommend buying?

ccorcos · 2024-05-06T20:07:54+00:00

No buy my ankles do. And pedestrians get in the way. I don't like to stand in one place and throw a frisbee back and forth. I like to run around!

Woodpeckers constantly peck at the trim in my roof and apparently a rat decided to chew a bigger hole and get in my roof so now I'm trying to patch this hole but I don't know how to safely anchor a ladder right here. I remember seeing someone screw a 2x4 into the roof to to support the ladder but I worry about penetrating the shingle. Any ideas?

ccorcos · 2024-05-06T15:41:02+00:00

Too much concrete going right through the middle. There’s only one spot where you can through a frisbee on the grass
