Tip of the Week:  It’s time to prune your deciduous trees.  If they don’t have leaves, it’s time to trim it back.

(Don’t trim back the frost damage until March 1st. The frost damage could go deeper in the plant if it freezes again)

Romey and Rosie discuss there recent trip to the Romero roots down in Louisiana

Callers:

  • Mike – He has pillars in his backyard with wood framing and solar panels on top. They love it, but the cinder block pillars are covered in stucco but there is no cap, so water is getting in. Is there anyway to re-seal this?

Recommendation – Use Thoroseal and it will reduce the moisture getting in.
