We have extremely hard water in Wiltshire UK. It is way above the average score (Measurement: ~349 mg/l (CaCO₃) or ppm UK measurements) for 25+ years we have had a water softener plumbed in under the sink in the kitchen. It’s the best. We have to fill up with salt pellets and it softens our water brilliantly. We have guests who ask how we keep the limescale off the taps and are amazed! Worth thinking about for your renovation. Love love watching you guys xx
Viburnum Wabi Sabi was one of my favorites and sold really well for us but I do like Steady Eddy for its repeat blooming. You should try some as they're only 4=5 tall and easy to tuck in. Also, a big fan of Shiny Dancer and you'd love the shiny leaves of this variety.
😂😂You two are so funny ! Maybe you should make a regularly scheduled crying video and we can cry with you and get our stress out. 😃🤣 Its so much fun watching you.
From experience…I also rarely cry and hold all of the stuff inside. As I’ve aged it has caught up with me. Cry when you can. Better out than in! I wouldn’t wish the autoimmune issues on anyone. Stress driven and and can be debilitating.
Just wondering, have you all ever thought of putting a half bath in the garage/studio building? Like the way you made a root cellar? That way your home is completely private, maybe add a fridge out there also for employees to store their lunch, snacks , or drinks?
42:18🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓 I’ve owned a few roosters in my day. My guess with Larry would either be a Cochin or an Americana. I’ve never had an Americana rooster however I have had several Cochin and with the cheek feathers and the booties feathers both of those types have those feathers. And they have the walnut comb as their crown. 🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓
Laura, I am surprised you didn't meantion your friend, "Gardening with Creekside", when a viewer said she wishes that she had a garden center in Low country SC. If they visited or called them to get a recommendation. ❤❤
Violet Society down in TX told me to water my African violets with 1/4 to 1/2 strength of any violet fertilizer every time I water. I have several and most the time 2 or more are in bloom.
Good morning, When you speak of plants/flowers in recap videos, can you throw up a picture beside you while speaking of it, so us GA fans can see what you are referring to? Or is that too much to put in a video? Just asking. Thank you for everything you do everyday GA Owners and Employees, you are all amazing people. Been a fan since townhouse days.
I use the Espoma African Violet fertilizer and it is the absolute BEST. I've tried so many others. My violets will bloom ALL YEAR LONG if I use it every other (even every) watering. I swear by it. They will bloom with regular fertilizer. But the quality and quantity of the blooms are so much better with Espoma's African Violet Fertilizer. I Highly Recommend it!!!!
Aaron you need a rain barrel for special plants. I have 3 and one in my basement that I fill up in the fall to water my house plants for the winter. That one's a chore thou cause I fill up water cans and carry them down and pour into the barrel, but my house plants love it. We have really hard water to, but no where as much as you.
With your kitchen renovation have you thought about water conditioning to remove hardware for the kitchen or even whole house. Not the salt exchange kind but the rechargeable resin type? I also have super hard water and live in high desert zone 7b (though not this year it’s been so warm!) my house came with a salt exchange softener for the house but I don’t like the salt based one (too much sodium for pets, people, and plants), the non-salt resins I hear they don’t work as well with super hard water, reverse osmosis is expensive for whole house but point of source at the kitchen sink for drinking is great but need to plan the space to install, there maybe others. Just wondering what you may be thinking or Aaron has analyzed already 😂. Love your videos. I’ve learned so much! Thank you!

Hi Laura and Aaron. Maybe the cabinet place does custom vanities.
Congrats Roy! happy Sunday everyone
Could you put a water softener system in? We have one, works great.

I grow my potatoes in grow bags. I get a great yield
Re alcohol wipes: I wouldn't waste time on the try. Too small to be effective in your use.

Totally left field but I really love Aaron‘s checkered shirts. They do seem to be quite thick and soft. Does anybody know the brand?
Save things you like to look at again later. Helps me eliminate things
I still have my christmas tree set up and I don’t feel bad about it 🤣 My husband loves it and it’s such a great light source.
Oh boy… suggest the super tall arbs to your neighbors with the “ tall house”! Privacy taken care of! 🤭
I have a tiny stihl (g20) chainsaw. It is the best tool in my arsenal.
Heavy and French inspired?! Sounds like STEAMPUNK! Lol
