How to Identify and Fix Common Gardening Problems ?

We provide a variety of viewpoints on how to identify and fix common gardening problems. Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced gardeners :

Running a pressure washer without water can cause irreparable damage, sometimes instantly, sometimes gradually over time. Either way, you are better off not risking rendering your machine unusable.
What is Power Washing? A power washer uses a high-pressure stream of very hot water to blast away dirt and materials from outdoor surfaces. The combination of high pressure and the temperature of the water make it better at removing all those truly stuck on materials from surfaces.
The easy start valve is a low pressure relief valve, which directs enough water into by-pass to reach a certain pressure. Redirecting water to by-pass in low pressure, produces less load on the pump and engine.
Pressure washers operate under pressure, and that pressure needs to be released by pulling the trigger. If you let the machine run for two minutes or longer without spraying water, then you could damage the pump.
The main difference is that power washing uses highly pressurized steam to do the cleaning while pressure washing just uses unheated tap water, without the help of a heating element.
Do Washing Machines Work Without Water? Most washing machines rely on water pressure coming from a preinstalled pump. This means that without being hooked on a water source, they will not work. Nor will it run if the water dispensing valves can`t open fully due to the lack of power.
After pressure washing your house, you have to wait for it to fully dry before you can paint it. This waiting time can be anywhere from 24 hours to 3 days. Pressure washing isn`t for beginners. If you`re not experienced, the high water pressure can easily damage portions of your house`s exterior.
The number one cause of low or no pressure when using a pressure washer is a blocked or worn nozzle. Blocked nozzles will prevent water from escaping, while a worn nozzle will allow too much water to pass through, causing the pressure to drop.
If you`re thinking about buying an electric pressure washer but are worried about utility bills, this guide will explain how much energy these appliances consume. A 12 amp pressure washer consumes 1440-1500 watts per hour, while a 15 amp model uses 1800 watts.
Negatives – Using a pressure washer to clean your home may not be all that it is cracked up to be. The pressure can blast through wood, asphalt and even concrete if close enough. So, you`re forcing water behind the siding which could cause problems within your walls and you wouldn`t even know until it`s too late.
Pressure Washing Pump Types

Reciprocating – Uses pistons, plungers or diaphragms. Rotary – Uses screws, gears, vanes or lobes.

Plunger is the most common as they are more efficient and have longer life. Plunger pumps represent 99% of the pumps found in the professional power wash industry. Plungers are usually made of ceramic which is very hard and less prone to wear.
Some washing machines have two different types of pump: a drain pump which empties the machine and a circulation pump which sprays water directly into the wash to improve the efficiency of the wash cycle.
If it is raining lightly, with no sign of thunder or lightning, you are fairly safe. If it is pouring, you may want to consider another day. If there are thunder and lightning, definitely put the job off.
“Most standard pressure washers will use between 2 to 4 GPM.” That comes a total of 120 to 240 Gallons Per Hour.
Mid-Range Power: 2,000 to 3,200 PSI

The most versatile category of pressure washers, those ranging from 2,000 to 3,200 PSI effectively clean cars (including the most well-used off-road vehicles), home siding, fences, boats and grimy garage floors. Those closer to 3,200 PSI work effectively on tough stains, too.

SAE 10W-30 or SAE 10W-40 are oils that are useful in both hot summer and cold winter days. For example, if you are looking to use your pressure washer and the temperatures are about 40 degrees (F) or less, SAE 10W-30 will be your failsafe option. Anything about 40 degrees, it can still be your best option.
Give Your Pressure Washer a Break

No matter how powerful your pressure washer might be, it`s never a good idea to leave your machine running for too long because doing so will increase the risk that it will overheat. Instead, most professionals suggest using a pressure washer in intervals of three to five minutes.

Overfilling oil may cause smoking, hard starting, spark plug fouling, and oil saturation of the air filter. Do not run the pressure washer before connecting and turning on the water supply failing to do so will result in damage to the pump.
The quick answer is yes, power washing can degrade a concrete surface. You can notice visible damage from water pressure at the level at which even light-duty power washers can operate. Therefore, if you aren`t careful, you can cause irreversible damage to your driveway or patio.
Pressure washing equipment has been designed to hand filtered water, not water from natural sources that may contain particles or water from local sources that may contain contaminants.
It is okay to use a washing machine 10-12 times a day. However, if you want to use it again, you must let it rest for at least 40-60 minutes before turning it on again, as, during its run-time, it tends to generate a lot of heat.
“Your washing machine can actually start to smell on its own, and you need to clean it,” Murphyshe says. “Front-loaders especially are prone to getting moldy, particularly in the rubber, so you need to avoid leaving clothes or materials in the washing machine overnight.”
