This is not a criticism, just a helpful hint. I see so many many people on RU-vid laying laminate flooring without leaving a small gap along the walls for expansion and contraction. You run the risk of your floor buckling, especially if you have big swings in humidity between seasons. The easiest way to leave that small gap is to place some of the large painter's stir sticks on edge along the walls (or a strip of 1/8 plywood) and remove them after the flooring is laid. That leaves a perfect 1/8-inch gap all around. It also helps in laying the flooring square if your walls are uneven. Typically the gap is then covered by baseboard (needless to say one should nail, or glue, baseboard to the WALLS, not FLOOR). Wood products, even laminate, absorb and release moisture so they need to able to move slightly over time. Hope this is helpful to other do-it-yourselfers who may be watching this channel.

Hi Joanne, thank you for your comment. This however isn't laminate where is super important to do what you have mentioned but its LVF and they don't require expansion gaps.

@harrietlivengood6793 7 месяцев назад

You’re doing a wonderful job! I know your mom will love her house. She’s blessed to have you both helping her in such a giving way.

@carmenmariacortesmarin2664 7 месяцев назад

This is probably the best video yet. I just love seeing your Mom, sister, and all of you there. It's wonderful to gather as a family. ❤❤❤ Her place is almost finished and it's beautiful, and full of loving work and memories ❤❤❤

@TheIndigoEscape 7 месяцев назад

Thank you Carmen! It was a summer of a lot of work but also a lot of family time which was a great balance. At the moment we are rain in! IT has been constant but getting some work done inside. Thank you for your support!

Thank you! 😊

@waynerudiger1756 7 месяцев назад

We had a poor tomato year in California as well. I'm totally jealous of your San Marzanos. I got nothing from mine. The damage is called blossom end rot and is caused by insufficient calcium. Fluctuating sorry l moisture, like overwatering then drying out makes it worse. Just because I know what causes it doesn't mean that I've been able to prevent it. Maybe next year (the eternal optimism of gardeners).

@micahmiller9113 7 месяцев назад

Your Mum is SO cute! Lovely job all- it's looking so beautiful after all your hard work and patience.

@TheIndigoEscape 7 месяцев назад

Very happy with the room :)

@TheIndigoEscape 7 месяцев назад

Thanks so much 😊

@julietlehrle-fry6696 7 месяцев назад

Your tomatoes got blossom end rot often a symptom of inconsistent water supply . Using calcium when you plant can help.

@TheIndigoEscape 7 месяцев назад

Thank you Juliet! I will look into how to add calcium. Maybe I shoudl get the soil test as see if its needing some other minerals

@kimberlywhidden5979 7 месяцев назад

I was going to say exactly the same thing.

@RINAKEYSER 7 месяцев назад

Watch the channel Garden like a Viking. He has a WONDERFUL CALCIUM SOLUTION which is shelf stable for a long time and you use very little. It is very concentrated but no worry it is all organic and cannot harm the plants if you use a bit than required... . You need to use this too on all peppers and chilli's.

@suzieq2958 7 месяцев назад

Coming on fabulously 😀 Tip for tomatoes- try drying some on kitchen roll then plant the piece of kitchen roll. It worked for me, and I even had a self seeded plant! 😮

@robynclarke5274 7 месяцев назад

The brown bottom of the tomatoes is called blossom end rot which is due to inconsistent watering. Humidity doesn't help either. If possible a watering system would help. How to Correct Blossom End Rot? Consistent Watering. Maybe you've been too casual with your watering routine and let your tomatoes dry out while they were setting fruit. ... Test Calciums Levels, and Adjust as Needed. ... Check Soil pH and Correct as Needed. ... Use a Tomato Fertilizer with Calcium. ... Avoid Damaging the Roots. Hope this helps.

yes, I had to learn this myself after experiencing the same thing.

@kkerr1953 7 месяцев назад

I like the format on the video. I also like all of your family coming to visit and interacting with you on the video. Your mom is so cute! I know she really appreciates everything y’all are doing for her. And it wouldn’t be home improvement without problems!😂

Hello, video in English, in Portugal with Brazilian music wow... I'm Brazilian, I live in São Paulo. Beautiful tomatoes 🍅🍅. I love your videos.... Success to you, hugs from Brazil 🇧🇷🎉❤😅

@coritipton9071 6 месяцев назад

Blossom end rot is what is happening with your tomatoes. Heaps of reasons, but basically a decrease in uptake of calcium. Easy to fix. Research if for next summer crop. You guys are doing so well. Keep up the good work

@edie_perty 7 месяцев назад

I dont know if it was mwnrioned in another comment but bottom end rot on tomatoes is a calcium deficiency in the soil. Add ground up eggshells befire planting next time. ❤

@joeramulders 7 месяцев назад

Add a little of the darker green to the lighter one. Just to the point it stops being too sweet. My doors are like that! (and yes its a pain if you need to retouch later)

@lagringa7518 7 месяцев назад

Love the new door color, bright is nice with all that beige/brown stone... much better than that other baby room color!

@user-jt9tk2qe8e 7 месяцев назад

Glad to see Omar back. Hope he has arranged a massive tour season for you both. I was one who felt filming the garden and showing what you do with the harvest would be of interest…glad to see that as well. It certainly adds to your lifestyle. And welcome to your family. Yaisa Ilene and Andrea. And husbands Simon and Omar and ???? And of course your mum. I don’t remember her name.

@graciemaca6996 7 месяцев назад

I really ❤❤❤ the light-coloured flooring! Very unique since most people opt for a dark colour to hide the dirt. It looks gorgeous! I think your mom will agree.🤗 As for the paint on the door, the darker green would be perfect, mom will be happy! ❤ Your tomato sauce looks delicious! Awesome job on the bathroom cabinets and tiled floor too. Gr8 job today!!! Everything looks gorgeous!😊👏👍

@TheIndigoEscape 7 месяцев назад

Thank you Gracie! It has been an amazing journey doing her room. The floor looks great, almost looks liek real wood until you touch it haha! But its super warm and easy to clean. We are all super chuffed! Can't wait for the living room but all in its own pace haha!

@sewingSue 6 месяцев назад

To prevent end rot, collect egg shells, rinsed and dried. Grind them to a powder and sprinkle into soil when planting seedlings. Continue adding around base of plants every two weeks during growing season.

@patriciabrawner3717 7 месяцев назад

Enjoyed the video.

@FrankieOffGrid 7 месяцев назад

It's SO exciting & gratifying watching the results of ALL your efforts through these videos in HD. And your personalities and prior vocations lend so well to achieveing the results you have through collaborations and community-based assistance - what a dream realised!! Thank you SO much for the transparency and for sharing this journey, the cultures merging and your appreciation of it all. Much love and admiration to you both and your beloved 'team'.

Growing up as a mozambican in South Africa in the 80's, I can recall using that contraption in my mother's kitchen to produce delicious soups, especially the hearty red bean soup w/ pigs feet (boiled prior after marinading in a garlic, salt & vinegar mix, until tender) - I deduce that a lot of mozambican cuisine pulls from the portugese of course, apparently kitchen utensils too)!

@snakey319 7 месяцев назад

it's a beautiful color, very much for Mediterraneans.

@boysrus61 6 месяцев назад

The bottom of your tomatoes is called end rot in English. You might need more calcium in your soil. If you add compost to cover the soil while it is growing that is great. Also, crush up your egg shells and mix in the top soil to add some calcium. Honestly tho, I take about three Tums- a product for heart burn- and add a few inches around the stem and that will seems to do the trick.
