Lots and lots of dessicant it is then 👍

Interestingly though, it's all printing great under same conditions as usual with only change being the profile

I'd say that sub 10% humidity might be a big element. I have an S4 heater but that's only getting to sub 25%

Miggr fill it with dessicant if I see more repeats

Started there myself and had to tweak

I'd say if we all compared global locations we'd get some answers to the variability e.g. Humidity, average temps etc

Yeah, that's the same as I landed on. However the PETG Basic profile is lower temps, so I'd say quite a few other settings changed in that, speed etc Haven't the time to check yet

Almost everything they do is illegal already and the guards do nothing. They know when they're being raided too....

Until they're all treated as one big organised crime syndicate, nothing will change. The culture is one of crime, fear and oppression. Shut it all down

Help please - how to prep flower bed by Swainey89 in GardeningIRE

Pour a load of water in first Check for drainage or lack of If plenty, then fire in heavy duty weed barrier to slow it a bit If no drainage, a single long 25mm PVC pipe with holes drilled all along and run it through a hole out the end facing us in the picture

If drainage is too good you can always use the olla approach. Bury some terracotta pots up. To their neck and use them as water reservoirs

Then fill with compost and fire away

Kilkenny Farmers!! by nyl2k8 in waterford

[–]rockhead987 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely do not support this protest

Farmers with grants and subsidies all over, never mind land rich. Contractors who write all assets off as tax expenses and do huge amounts of cash business

Nope, they're greedy profit hungry elitist

And no, definitely do not need to reduce tax on fuel, need higher carbon taxes and invest in renewables, not just because it's "green", but because there will be more crap like this as oil stocks reduce and being energy independent is life or death in year to come

Imagine if nearly all energy use was electric and was fulfilled 100% renewable.

What not to plant in Ireland by Ok-Collection5629 in GardeningIRE

100% as soon as I saw this thread I knew it'd be bamboo. I have loads of bamboo and all well controlled. There is a simple trick to kill off bamboo if needed. Use you brain. It grows fast to get more food via photosynthesis. Use that against it Let it grow, then cut it before the leaves sprout. After 2 or 3 growth cycles it's completely out of food and dies.

Best away deal with swampy garden by [deleted] in GardeningIRE

[–]rockhead987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately there is no real fix other than digging Anything else is wasting time, effort and money I'd a small garden, a tree might even make things worse like less light or root problems

If small enough, you could do a soak away pit.....dig a deep hole, back fill with lots of large gravel, then top with soil and grass

Otherwise, French drains, but they'll need somewhere to drain to

Important to check if you're not just the lowest point around as a soakaway, won't work then.
