    Whirlpool Dryer part for Evenheat with AutoTempControl

    Awhile back, at where else? A garage sale I purchased two two-packs of HP printer ink refill cartridges, and this appliance part. It goes to a Whirlpool model or models in the Kenmore Elite series - or is it Kenmore by Whirlpool?? Whatever. Originally selling as a repair part for upwards of...

    this is not a prank....

    I may regret this, but I could actually use some D capensis if anybody wants to part with them. Any sundews really (except binatas). I'm rebuilding my collection and only have one small pot of alba capensis. I know-wait a couple months and that'll turn into 183,000 but I'd rather have a...

    Puns!

    Enjoy! :) I changed my iPod name to Titanic. It's syncing now. I tried to catch some Fog. I mist. When chemists die, they barium. Jokes about German sausage are the wurst. A soldier who survived mustard gas and pepper spray is now a seasoned...

    My new grow chamber

    It still needs a little work to be 100% complete but is already a huge improvement over my old terrarium. -first of all it is much bigger. Can fit about 4 10 gallon fish tanks inside it so my plants are much more comfortable. -secondly the humidity control is much improved. I added a...

    Croatan Forest

    Hi, I'm new to the forum. I don't have any CP's of my own, but I am very interested in conservation of the picosin habitat in which CP's live. A few miles from where I live, the Croatan forest contains pine savannas and picosins which form the natural habitat for these plants in my area...

    Photography class, part one.

    Keith and a couple of other people have asked me to share some tips for photographing plants. It's taken me a while to get it together, but I've got a plan now: I'll write up a series of "lessons and exercises" you can participate in, if you wish. Here's the first one, and I hope that it is...

    A year in the life of Cephalotus follicularis

    In June of 2011 I bought my first Cephalotus follicularis; the so-called "vigorous" clone from D. Hastings. I knew little about the care and cultivation of this mysterious species, but as is my way, I sought every snippet of information available to help me forge a plan for its care. This is the...

    Anybody Familiar With P0446 Evaporative Emission Control System Vent Control Circuit?

    My engine light is on. I took it to Autotune for a free diagnosis. They printed out 3 codes: 440, 441, 446. I already replaced the gas cap. My mechanic narrowed it down to P0446. Any ideas?

    Question

    Hi all- I have a small terrarium with young VFT, N American Pitchers & sundews growing in it. I am seeing some spots of mold oping up, is it ok for me to sprinkle some cinnamon in there for fungus control? My plants are very young and I can't move them. Any suggestions?

    Another cooling system

    Hey guys, Dunno if you remember, but last summer I modified an AC to fit into my tank (see my sig to a link about it). I've now decided to try something else using an office water cooler. Essentially it's the same idea as Martin Hingst, except that I used a water cooler instead of a fridge...

    Highland chamber

    My goal for this setup is to make some of my highland Neps happy. Most of my Neps do fine in my basement conditions but a few, such as N aristolochioides, need it colder. I haven't bought anything for this setup yet. I'm looking for feedback on how you think this will work. Enclosure...
