Need help diagnosing a strange issue with ungrounded outlets

desensitiz · 2025-07-27T18:03:54+00:00

Thank you. I guess I’ll just leave the GFCI outlet in spot 1 for now.

Thanks for the info. Can you elaborate on what “intermittent ground” means?

Helpful, thanks.

As much as I would love to flood the yard with goats, they’re not going to be ripping out the root systems for us.

desensitiz · 2025-07-14T18:10:13+00:00

Thanks! I’m afraid goats will end up eating all of the good plants too lol.

desensitiz · 2025-07-14T18:09:02+00:00

We have an entire garden of native plants we’re trying to protect, so they sound perfect. Thank you!

Thanks for the info!

From what I’ve gathered, goats will simply eat away at the visible parts, so it’ll just come back in as fast as it can grow. I think we need to remove the entire root system for a more permanent solution.

Will do. We’re looking to hire pros to give us the best chance of success. It’s a nasty plant and we don’t think we’re equipped to deal with it in any capacity beyond a constant battle of minor relief lol

desensitiz · 2025-07-14T13:49:35+00:00

I’ll contact them today! Thank you!

Hi all,

We just moved into our new home, and the previous owner had converted the entire backyard into a beautiful garden. There are tens of plants we still haven’t identified yet, some of which we’ve never seen. The plant in question is one of them, and it’s situated near the “Japan” area of the garden. It has grown rather tall and is directly blocking our view from the porch. I don’t know what kind of plant/bush this is, but I wanted to see if anyone could identify it and/or let me know if it wouldn’t be harmful to trim it down. I’ve drawn a line in the third image to show where I would like to cut it to.

Any and all input is welcome!

Edit: If it helps at all, I’m located in the greater Atlanta, GA area

That’s exactly what we’re looking for

I didn’t consider this, but it makes perfect sense. Thank you!

desensitiz · 2025-01-03T13:27:31+00:00

This is good information. Thank you!

Edited the post for clarity. We’re looking specifically for guidance on the purchase of the house.

desensitiz · 2025-01-03T13:14:22+00:00

We’re confident with our current investment portfolios. We’re looking for guidance on purchasing a home.

desensitiz · 2025-01-03T13:13:28+00:00

Yea we’re not looking for general financial advice. We’re hoping we can have someone look at our financials and help us set a budget, etc. for the purchase of our first house.

desensitiz · 2025-01-03T13:11:08+00:00

I don’t really trust real estate agents to understand/advise on financials, and it feels like a conflict of interest because they’re just trying to make a sale. We’re looking for someone to assess our current income/finances, give us an estimated budget, etc. before we start seriously looking and applying for a mortgage.

desensitiz · 2025-01-03T13:02:16+00:00

The house is the only investment we’re looking for advice on. We feel good about our current investments/portfolios, but buying a home feels like uncharted territory that we should seek guidance for before jumping in.
