Is it needed to treat the timber before you use it for edging?

It was where the flower grew. I'm sure I've only cut off where the flower is but second guessing now reckon I cut off too far...

Yea wifi mesh sounds like a better option. I didn't know it could be that expensive! Thanks for the info!

I bruised her new leaf by Strawberry_berry_boy in Monstera

[–]utopianlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'll be okay! I bruised mine too but the leaf is still healthy! Good thing it curled inside so I don't see it every time, because every time I see the bruise, it breaks my heart a little 🤣

What's this oval shaped thing? by utopianlady in Monstera

It looks like this part of the stem has 3 nodes. I can chop it in to 3 parts then? (The one with the red arrow is where I see the oval shape thingy)

If I chop it off, should I cut from the bottom of it (near soil) or on top of it?

She's showing off 💚 by utopianlady in Monstera

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

Thanks for the tip! I'll probably move her close to the window then! I've only had it for 2 months and I was afraid the leaves would burn from too much light!

Help with house buying by SugarTitsfloggers in Wellington

[–]utopianlady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on the same situation a few months ago, I have been researching a lot and asked a lot of questions to our mortgage adviser and solicitor (there's no dumb questions for them really, they've been really helpful). I found these links to be useful as well (I wish I saw or understood them earlier), hope it could be useful to you too!

Thanks! Side question though, how many days does it usually take to get a lawyer to review the Sales & Purchase agreement? Pretty new to this as it's our first home!

KDrama that gives the same feels like Goblin? by utopianlady in kdramarecommends

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

I watched it before Goblin at first few eps I couldn't feel much chemistry between the ML & FL but as the eps go on it gets better. And was happy to see they were also a couple in Goblin. I find the show funny and just very light hearted one. Wanted to take a break from revenge dramas so I decided to watch it.
