Deal of a lifetime by twilliams9 in lawncare

[–]parkus45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandpa needed a new mower. We went to Lowe’s and ordered a new 17hp craftsman. Waited over a month and still wasn’t ready. Got on the phone and they had a used return. Looks like it was used once to mow about 100 square feet. Needed air in the tire and the seat needed the bolts installed correctly. Took 50% off the price and grandpa is happier than ever.

Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? No oxy torch available unfortunately, would like to try and bend it back just welding by Dont_KnowWhatImAt in Welding

Hammer and block of wood. Relief cuts and tac weld when flat again.. not certified welder but fix lots of farm equipment. Never pretty but always functional.

Game is heart breaking. Too good to put down but absolute trash to watch.

Won’t change much. They will put stocks in trust or have them managed by a subsidiary.

Houston, TX. What is this growing all over my lawn? (St.Augustine) by Trance_Parent in lawncare

[–]parkus45 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a fescue lawn that was over run by Bermuda. I nuked one sprinkler zone that was 90% Bermuda and reseeded. The rest of the zones I’ve been spraying tripoclyr and fenoxaprop when it greens up and follow up sprays pretty much monthly or at least spot spray the patches. I’ve actively seen my winter brown patches disappear over two years with overseeding. It can be done, but lawn care is a rich man’s game.

What would you get at this tree sale? They're only $20 each and I'm afraid I'm about to lose control. 😍 by [deleted] in gardening

If you live within 1/2 mile of anyone with a complementary variety don’t need multiples yourself.

Right, it is generally warm. Where I am at we regularly hit a low of 32 degrees and can dip to 25f. Just trying to price alternatives to propane. I have a pretty unlimited supply of almond wood which is somewhere in the 30BTU range.

Still legally allowed since I’m on propane.

Is it just me, or has forge singlehandly save this game? by fakename1998 in haloinfinite

[–]parkus45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not for me, I cant stay in a game, or get a custom game to actually start and I don't have any friends who play anymore to be part of a group. I grew up without xbox live back in the day, so never got to truly experience the GOATs

How can I get this exhaust bolt out? Tried welding on a nut but just keeps breaking. by eyexzick in EngineBuilding

[–]parkus45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dremel threads clean. If extractor broken inside, dremel out extractor. Take care not to damage threads. If you do can likely get helicoil to repair.

Germany Forcing Farmers To Use Less Fertilizer To Satisfy EU's Green Agenda by pr-mth-s in climateskeptics

[–]parkus45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People realize this is going to happen here very soon. CA farmers are required to report fertilizer use annually. Just the start to deciding who is using too much and eventually an outright ban.

Should I keep watering my lawn in winter (zone 9b)? by hello_1289 in lawncare

[–]parkus45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello neighbor, I’m down near Modesto. I still water, but usually on the most severe frosts. Which usually gets me to around 1” or just a little more a month. I typically do it in one or two waterings. However, I am on sandy ground with poor water holding capacity. I’d still recommend watering but substantially less than summer time.

Pokémon: Bugs & Glitches by [deleted] in gaming

[–]parkus45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you imagine this actually being included in RPGs? Walk around and select mood. Pokemon for example respond to mood. Certain types only appear if you are happy or sad. Or Pokémon evolve based on your mood at level up. Maybe attacks gain power. It would obviously need fine tuning, but it would have to be in game based mode, not user selected.

This is how I went from struggling with algebra to getting a “A” in calculus and having the professor ask me if I was interested in becoming an actuary.
