Heck the dead leaves on the stalks. A rule of thumb is when half the leaves have died back it is ready to pull. Usually bulbs have about ten leaves.

To add to this. I always wanted to get into fly fishing. Anyone have a recommendation on a good tackle setup for a rookie

I think a family member in Alexandria is going through this right now. Does the pitch of the roof affect the chance of this happening? How about a fully foam insulated roof?

Might be the outside air lever. Looks like mine and the damper lever is located on top of the fireplace

re: Help with Chamber Vac decision

Posted by tacotiger on 11/17/20 at 5:32 pm

I have a vacmaster 210 I bought 10 years ago. Not sure the length of the sealing bar but it accepts 10 in wide bags. Wider is better if you want to seal bigger bags. I use it every week and have run hundreds of bags through it. I buy bags by the case from targils in Opelousas. Haven’t in a while but they are cheap.

re: Steel Door or Fiberglass

Posted by tacotiger on 11/15/20 at 7:23 pm

We built a house this past year. All exterior doors on the house and the doors on the storeroom attached to an open carport are Fiberglass recommended by both our contractor and LSU AgCenter Lahouse. No shrink no swell no rot. We got textured and stained and coated with marine grade varnish. Looks just like wood. Two rear doors on the house have the built in blinds. Of the people I know who have the built in blinds they are satisfied and have had no problems.
