How to prevent culantro (recao) from going to seed
My first tip is to plant culantro (or recao) indoors in February or early March. Then transplant outdoors when the weather permits, or when outside temperatures reach 50 degrees Fahrenheit or higher at night. In my case that was late May. Second tip, cut the stalk with the seed pods when you seed them. If you let the plants go to seed then they will die off early. This is one way to get an abundant leaf harvest that can last many months until first frost.

Acura RL 2005-2012 Rear Brakes
zhlédnutí 833Před 14 dny
Today I change my brake rotors and brake pads on a 2006 Acura RL. It is the same process for all 2005 to 2012 RL models. This car has been with me for a very long time and it still runs good, except for some electrical issues. Maybe I can make it last to 300,000 miles. Getting close now. I hope this information is useful to someone. 🔔 Subscribe for more weekly videos: czcams.com/channels/M235Ya...

      That is very true. My family’s culantro on the island is mostly on shady areas. All my raised beds are in full sun and I compensate by using good compost and they did great last year. One way to put them in part shade is by planting them in small pots and moving to a shady area if needed.

    @KING4aday46 Před 14 dny

    The two screws are put in there while the vehicle was put together during the assembly line. Yes, they do freeze up and I have also not replaced them. It seems that snow and salt help in rusting up your brake system. It seems that living there would mean in taking them apart once every year just to stop any corrosion issues. Just to inspect and not to replace.

    • @oviduran
      @oviduran Před 14 dny

      I remember about twelve years ago not being able to take one screw off a 2003 VW and had to take it to the dealer. But if I ever put new screws in, a good idea may be to add a little anti-seize to them.

      I did not put new ones in. Those screws are not required. It’s an option. They are there for assembly purposes at the factory so the rotors don’t move or fall out during assembly. The lugnuts hold the rotors in place. I did order new screws for Honda/Acura for future use in case…

    • @oviduran
      @oviduran Před 14 dny

      But be aware that cars historically did not come with screws in rotors. That’s a newer thing for assembly purposes when cars are being built. I noticed the screws started showing up in some cars after the year 2001 or so.

    Not trying to bash on a/c companies for doing their job correctly but when you show a clip of that fellow CZcams that was charged the $1,102.28 for supposedly getting his capacitor changed out seems to be that on his invoice you can clearly see they charged him for other items as well. So maybe it wasn’t honestly $1,102.28 you can see they charged him for 1. Dispatch trip charge 2. 30 amp fuse 3. The turbo capacitor 4. Additional labor/svc 5. 1 year H&C maintenance plan Now I normally don’t defend hvac companies but I can how to say that the $1,102.28 invoice you seen on his video claiming to be from the capacitor isn’t entirely true and can’t be bashing on a company who actually itemized the charges on the invoice.
