User questions & answers
| Question: | Will this work for puppy love bromeliad air purifying plant |
| Answer: | Hello , smaller seeds may not work with the spacings . Grass and clover would be very slow to cover any sort of area . Most of those seed varieties would sow by broadcasting . Hope this helps , David. |
| Question: | Is this soil for a zz and dracena plant |
| Answer: | You might have the wrong plate installed. The one for green beans is larger and that would cause multiple seeds to drop. Also Different types of sweet corn are different sizes not only that but when they grade sweet corn at their plants they could have sent the wrong size,That would have been a mistake on their part.They would deny this but mistakes happen and companys do not want to admit that they made a mistake in grading.I know this because of being a farmer.also a smaller gear on the distribution box would cause the plate to spin faster and it would drop the seed faster.I am reffering to the older planters with interchangeable plates.The new planter of today are air driven and they do drop their seeds much closer together to increase production. |
| Question: | Does this have bugs/gnats in it |
| Answer: | This is one of the weaknesses of the Earthway seeder, particularly when using small seeds. This is primarily due to the flex in the plastic seed plates. The best fix that I know of is to use a 3 dia. Schedule 40 PVC end cap. Cut off roughly about 1" inch, basically leaving you with a shorter cap. Drill a hole in the center that will just allow a 1/4x20 bolt to slide through. Take out the central bolt holding the seed plate assembly to the seeder and replace it with a 1/4x20 bolt that is 2-1/4 long. The new bolt should pass completely through the seed plate assembly and new cap. Install a wingnut on the end for easy plate removal/replacement but tighten just snug enough to allow the plate to still spin freely. |
| Question: | Could i use this soil for prayer plants |
| Answer: | This is certainly capable of planting any size garden. I have planted beets with it and other small seeds. It has no trouble scooping up the very last seed in the hopper. You may wonder if it is worth the price for a very small garden. That is up to you. I have had one for thirty years. It was well worth the cost. It plants more accurately than you can do it manually. And, it saves your back. My brother has used it to plant an acre of corn for his livestock. |

On Native Soil
LIONSGATE
Product description
THIS IS THE STORY OF SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 - THE EVENTS LEADING UP TO IT, THE TRAGIC DAY ITSELF, AND THE AFTERMATH.
Almost as frightening as the tragic events it details, On Native Soil is essential viewing for anyone seeking to understand how systemic failures in U.S. national security led to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. By focusing on 9/11 survivors, the surviving family members of 9/11 victims, and their passionate demand for an official investigation into the World Trade Center attacks masterminded by Osama bin Laden, this riveting documentary serves as a remarkable audio-visual companion to the 9/11 Commission's official report (which is included in its entirety on this DVD). Featuring alternating narration by Kevin Costner and Hilary Swank, the film contains much of the same material included in other 9/11 documentaries, but it's informed by an inspiring sense of moral outrage as we learn, step by step, how much the U.S. government and the Bush administration knew about possible terrorist attacks prior to 9/11, and failed to take any significant action against those threats. Beginning with former CNN reporter Peter Arnett's revealing interview with bin Laden in Afghanistan in 1997, and ending with the sobering observation that we're still inadequately prepared for another 9/11-like attack, On Native Soil unfolds with a deeply personal perspective that's dramatically contrasted by the galling audacity of administrative spin control.
As recalled by surviving family members of 9/11 victims, ample evidence existed to prove that the government was aware of terrorist plots on native soil. In light of their research, then-National Security Advisor Condoleeza Rice looks particularly culpable: As one grieving widower observes, Rice either lied in her post 9/11 press conferences (when she claimed "nobody could have known of these attacks") or--worse yet--she was unaware of the voluminous evidence of active terrorist plots available in the public record. It goes on from there: interagency communication breakdowns, disorganized response strategies when the attacks occurred, incredibly lax security at airports, and damning evidence of governmental neglect--all leading to the inescapable conclusion that 9/11 might have been avoided had the Bush administration been more attentive to obvious and immediate threats to national security. In driving these points home, director Linda Ellman doesn't flinch from the harshest realities: This is one of the few 9/11 documentaries to show attack victims leaping to their deaths from the burning twin towers of the WTC, and emotional testimony from survivors adds yet another layer of tragedy to these earth-shaking events. As a tribute to the families who confronted a shockingly reluctant administration and demanded the 9/11 Commission Report, On Native Soil serves a noble and timeless purpose: It honors those who died on 9/11, provides a cautionary warning against complacency among government officials and U.S. citizens alike, and reminds us that terrorism on native soil is a constant threat that must not be ignored. --Jeff Shannon

User questions & answers
| Question: | Can you manually turn on zones from the unit itself without the use of a phone |
| Answer: | If you remove the front cover, there are buttons for selecting a zone and running it manually. There are LEDs in a circle around the Rachio logo, numbered to match the sprinkler zones as you select your target zone. Once the zone you wish to water is highlighted, simply press the manual run button. Good in an emergency, but this unit's primary use case is using the app or website. |
| Question: | Does this work if wifi is down? What watering schedule does it revert to in this case? Will the app alert me |
| Answer: | The Iro utilizes EEPROM, persistent memory, so the last saved schedule(s) are stored on the device itself. So Please rest assured knowing that if the Iro loses connectivity with your WiFi, it will always continue to water using the last saved. Any updates/changes to these watering schedules will upload to the Iro the next time it reconnects with the cloud. You will receive an e-mail notifying you that it is off line. |
| Question: | Can you manually start/stop zones via the app? When working on the system I would love to not walk back to the garage for this |
| Answer: | Yes. You can manually start/stop each zone individually from the app, as well as adjust how many minutes each zone is on. |
| Question: | What's are the differences between gen 1 and gen |
| Answer: | The sync up is totally different in that just approaching the devise with you smart devise it will ask for the serial number and then you are linked with the unit. There are several manual cycles when you do not have wifi available during initial installation. There is the function of the using flow sensors in the future. There is much more space for the valve wires. There is the visual of what valve is operating during the irrigation cycle on the controller to name a few. |
