How quickly do H's and H's respond to soil pH?
Q
Comments (3)
I grow blueberries here in Madison, Wisconsin, and we have hard water, that is, our tap water contains dissolved limestone. There is a layer of limestone underground here, I think it covers all of southern Wisconsin. Blueberries require soil with a pH between 5 and 6, so our tap water is a problem when the shrubs need to be irrigated. I have had success by adding white vinegar (5%) that was bought at our local food market. This is standard white vinegar, nothing exotic. Using a pH meter, I determined that 6 fluid ounces of vinegar added to 4 gallons of tap water was about right. The blueberries seem to agree, they have dark green leaves, like they should, when the soil pH is correct.

tankless H2O heater + H2O efficient dishwasher = problems
Q
Comments (25)
I realize this is an old threat but have the same issue as bevangel-i-h8-hOuzz. New tankless water heater does not provide enough flow to keep water hot enough for the dishwasher to work effectively. We tried turning the hot water heater up above 120 degrees. Have tried running hot water continuously in the sink while running the dishwasher. Also tried pausing the dishwasher each time it goes through a fill to get the water hot in the sink before resuming. Any other suggestions? Does the dedicated small hot water heater under the sink do the trick? Right now I'm regretting the new tankless water heater.

Question about h. June and h. Halcyon
Q
Comments (3)
Technically both could have sported but that's highly unlikely. In your shoes the solid blue out of 'June' is 'Halcyon' and it unfortunate your 'Ice Age Trail' has reverted to 'Big Daddy'. I've had an 'Ice Age Trail' for well over 10 years and one year it developed a very nice shoot that was all medio-variegated. Way to go I thought. I separated it from the main plant -believe there were like 2 or shoots that were medio- and potted it up in its own 3-gallon pot. That was 2 years ago. Last year when things were breaking again I was horrified to not be able to find said medio-variegated IAT, I looked high and low and could NOT find it. I would not have sold it, it would have to be somewhere in the yard and the only thing I can think of is that when it came back up it reverted back to 'Big Daddy' and the only reason I even think that is because I seemed to have one extra BD....What a disappointment. What's left of the streaker is showing less streakingand I'll soon have to separate those shoots in order to preserve it.... Pieter

As a followup to Konrad's post I thought I would post a Honeybee......
.

Having done that, I think it is far more appropo to say "H" is for Having Fun.

I think Clairdo2 came up with a fantastic idea back on June 16 when she proposed that we play ABC's. I for one have thoroughly enjoyed all the photos that have been posted.

I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank everyone who has participated in the project and I sincerely hope we can carry through the end of the alphabet, at which time we should probably start over again..
