“It’s traumatizing,” said Fayard Johnson, who lives down the street. “Very surprised to see my neighbor’s house being destroyed.”

Another house owned by Fayard’s neighbor is also slated for demolition.
The demolition is the latest chapter in the saga of TerraceWood, a housing development launched in Meaford in 2015 with much pomp. “Boutique” portions of the homes were built by Third Line Homes, backed by celebrity contractor and popular TV personality Mike Holmes.

Repair or upgrade?
The house is our refuge. Sometimes it’s an office, sometimes it’s a game room, a cooking studio or a spa. And the house is the best reflection of our values and preferences, character and interests. But we are changing, the family is growing. Sooner or later, there comes a time when it is necessary to find new design solutions for the place where we spend a lot of time. Global repairs are only necessary in a few cases: when moving, as well as if serious redevelopment and replacement of functional systems and communications are required. In all other cases, you can do without updating the interior to make the space more comfortable and modern.

Recently, home staging (from the English home staging – house + staging) has been gaining popularity – preparing a room for sale or rent, creating a new thoughtful image of it. But even if the sale is not planned, the principles of homesteading will help you take a fresh look at your own home and find interesting solutions.

Why combine landings
Joint planting of cabbage with other crops is beneficial for several reasons at once.

Saving space. Instead of two separate beds, you can make one if you choose plants that do not compete with cruciferous plants for resources, do not shield them from the sun and prefer the same land and an identical watering regime. In this case, it is necessary to ensure that the neighbor has a deep root system (since cabbage usually has a superficial one) and that he does not have large leaves blocking the light.
Increasing the yield and improving its quality. Some plants can not only coexist side by side, but also help each other. And from this point of view, legumes will be the optimal companion for cabbage forks. They saturate the soil with nitrogen compounds, which are very important for the growth of heads.
Protection from pests and diseases. Many garden crops have developed mechanisms that protect them from insects. If you plant them along the rows of cruciferous plants, then the beds will remain safe. And since ants and aphids often infect plants, blocking their access can save plantings from a number of diseases.
Thus, by choosing successful neighbors, you can significantly increase the yield, use fewer insecticides and apply fertilizers less often.

Types and features of aviaries
Aviaries are divided into portable and stationary ones. The first ones, which are light cells, are easier to buy at a veterinary salon. They are more often used for caring for a sick animal, keeping puppies.

What elements do tomatoes need in July
This month, tomato bushes dramatically increase their nutrient intake. They actively spend their resources on the formation and growth of fruits, on the set of vegetative mass. To do this, they especially need potassium and phosphorus, which are “responsible” for the setting, growth and ripening of fruits. For the same purposes, the plant needs boron, zinc, iron, calcium, iodine, humic acids, manganese. All this gives him the opportunity to form ovaries on time and correctly, pour fruits with high sugar content and without excess water. Thus, a properly selected and timely top dressing affects the number of fruits, their taste and shelf life.

What happened before the renovation
Previously, the ceiling was covered with whitewash, which lasted for many years until there was a water leak from the neighbors above. As a result, yellow spots appeared even through putty and whitewash. Attempts to remove this defect did not lead to anything.

The suspended structure would avoid such problems in the future. I have already had experience with its device made of 50 × 50 cm plastic tiles and a rack-and-pinion profile, in which small halogen lamps are usually installed. And I was already inclined to do something similar.
