Big work day for me when I get at it. Pots all need cleaning, refilled and plants transplanted. Tent has to be cleaned out, fans cleaned. salvage some clay balls. I bought the air bases so I don't need as many but I'll still use a few around my airdomes

I need a break, 30 min straight. I have the results of my fan grill air dome test and I scored an A. it worked well I should get a gold star for this. The roots are a bit off color from sitting 2-3 days without plants attached and no water I think but they filled the grill. My 4 " net pots work as well

We get that too. Not as bad as your driveway this year though. But our steep roof usually causes our stoop to get iced over one or twice a winter from melt. That’s why we have the salt and sand mix.

This is after it was shovelled clean twice.

We also have three inside sidewalks and the street sidewalks to shovel.

Then the shovel broke.

But we had another so we could do our flat roof which was leaking down the chimney again.

The snow was about a foot at the edges and up to three feet against the peaked roof.

I’m so done with winter.

Hope your able to manage yours. The ice looks nasty. I bought a propane cane torch years ago for the stairs. Kind of sucks as it’s slow but sometimes it’s all that works.

I know we have a bag in the garage but you think I could find it? People move stuff so when it’s time to get them…good luck finding it.

The bucket of sand/salt I keep near the garage door because of past issues.

I've been making my own air domes with 3" & 4" net pots and I noticed that the bigger the better so I tried that fan grill and it worked great. I bought the air bases so that grill won't work out but the net pots should be fine
