laundry
maggies_etc asked:

I’ve tried the most expensive laundry soaps, softers, color guards, etc., but my laundry still fades….what’s the deal? I have to stay with powdered soap and liquid softener because of how it reacts to my body chemicals. Any suggestions?

How can I stop my grandmothers garden from dying?

garden
midnightnocturne0 asked:

I am responsible for maintaining my grandmothers LARGE garden for the next week. She left one day ago and already some of the flowers look like they’re dying.

A few of them appear to droop and look to be curling up and hardening. I believe she watered them before she left and I watered them again in the evening. The next morning I watered them, then watered them again in the evening. The temperatures been around 90 degrees and about half of the plants are hanging on pots above the fence while the others are in the ground.

The garden is about three feet wide but goes all around the perimiter of the yard and there is a ton of stuff. I usually run the water right where the plants roots are for about ten seconds then move to the next plant, the whole routine usually takes me 45minutes. Unfortunetly these plants aren’t looking too good and she will be very disappointed if she returns home to dead plants.

Any tips on how I can keep them alive?

Kitchen Cleaning and need help with food/stain removal on walls?

cleaning
spiritsocean asked:

I am cleaning my kitchen right now and am having a very hard time getting the walls/floor clean next to the oven. Food stains, grease stains, etc….it doesn’t want to come off.

I am using a heavy cleaner (from Lysol) and letting it soak in for a bit before I try and clean. But nothing is working.

Does anyone have advice on what to use – or a mixture of household ingredients to use to get my painted kitchen walls clean?

Thank you!

How do I start a flower garden?

garden
Lisa F asked:

I live in NC and I’d like to start a small flower garden in front of my home. It’s in an area that gets sunlight periodically during the day. I believe there used to be flowers there because there’s a decorative brick border around the area but it’s overrun with weeds and there are no flowers there now. The soil is pretty good I’d say…not too dry or hard. How do I start a flower garden? I’m interested in some periennials and some annuals…can those be grown together?

laundry
hs02830 asked:

We currently only do 3 Full loads a week. But our roomates, another couple who do their laundry together have been doing laundry about 5 times a week. Just wanted to see how many loads of laundry other couples do per week before we ask them to cut back on all the water.
