It must be me! So you have this, what am I looking at? They're the boards the roof is made from and there's felt straight on top? We're looking up inside the cowl? You'd like a cylindrical bit of Rockwool 3' long and 3" in diameter you'll wrap around the silver pipe, between that and the wood? What diameter is the silver pipe and what slope is the roof angle?

Thought you were an expert on nasties under the rim? 😂

Well...the runner and dwarf beans SWMBO planted in pots have been fairly decimated by the b'stards! Found two snails under the rim of one pot then a big fat slug on the ground. Doesn't bode well for when the 50 go in the ground

Well without proper measurements that ain't happening then.

It's really good. Better than the Soudal Low Expansion I was using. Goes off to like a tough, flexible rubber skin rather than a 'crunchy' mass. I struggled to cut it like "normal" foam.

Those and the pyramid orchids....Shhhh! 🤐

Where do you think I get most of my stuff? 😂

How deep does the insulation layer need to be?

Just wondering out loud here... Could I "encourage" a couple of slow worms into my enclosure for slug control?

Lidl had carbon monoxide alarms the other day.

I might have some "proper", green, Rockwool slab offcuts that would be suitable if you'd be happier with that. If so I'll post them. I know where you live! 😂

Thanks. Yep, netting the beans. Debating brassicas.

Can't remember. I was probably thinking more of this sort of thing with a solar panel you mount externally. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Zchui-Waterproof-Double-lamp-Wall-Mounted-Greenhouse/dp/B0885Y19BX/ref=pd_aw_lpo_1?pd_rd_i=B0885Y19BX&psc=1

I'll be making a gate in the enclosure. Itll be 8' high. 7mm netting appears to be the maximum mesh size if growing brassicas. Deters the cabbage white from laying eggs and also keeps birds out. Not sure how pollinators get in.....do brassicas get pollinated?

Any thouughts on "netting" to be cable tied to my 25mm box section frame. This'll go top and sides. Mainly to protect from rabbits then deer. I was looking at this plastic netting. Won't stop a badger I know. Rats would no doubt chew it. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Feizeisun-Garden-Netting-Protecting-Vegetables/dp/B097PYWP5H/ref=sr_1_7?crid=1ST1SKQWEEGW7&keywords=garden+netting&qid=1653895576&sprefix=garden+netting%2Caps%2C106&sr=8-7

You could 3D print grommets to go round the pipe. Either flexible or in two halves. Complete overkill of course. ...or you could foam it. I know which one I'd choose 😂

Which is imo fair enough.

I used to subscribe to Popular Science and get it sent every month. Then some thing happened and they stopped the subscription service for overseas (9/11?).

Pretty sure if it didn't work it wouldn't be a thing! https://soundproofexpert.com/acoustic-sealant/

Point to point!

Mine did have hair that reached down to the backs of her knees. It a fit of teenage rebellion she cut it off one night, cue tears from SWMBO! 😂 Secretly well please as it's reduced the frequency I have to unclog and clean the Geberit wall drain. Both of mine are shortsighted but you would have thought they'd have at least felt the water lapping at their ankles!

I get a WhatsApp message from upstairs to "advance the hot water". First thing I do when I walk in at night is turn any advance settings off and turn the room stat down to something near normal.

This thread or life in general?

What happens to these systems if you get hit by a bus? Are you going to write a manual for the muggles left behind that they can understand?
