MDP Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 (edited) i use rapesco`s for my work fine bit of kit for around £20 or less.... edit to add: handy chaps for me are large towel for spills and a wee hoover for cleaning out round the plants...

tony2wheelsgood Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 i spend alot of time examining each plant for bugs etc and since i'm getting old i don't care to sit on the floor so a small comfy chair is my ideal accessory. Just sitting and watching the plants grow is more productive than watching telly most nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doodle Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 (edited) one of those big 50L odd plastic bins, good to emptying your reservoir if it's in an awkward place. Also a big roll of thinish stainless steel wire and wiresnips for tieing branches down evenly have a test tube shotglass for measuring out nutrients too.. handy Edited April 18, 2005 by doodle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unkal mark Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 When I get round to it, I intend to try glueing them down to get a nice flat surface. - Lucid. 316006[/snapback] Try Spray Mount, its more forgiving than most glues and you can reposition if you dont get it right first time. Although i must admit the flatness of your mylar puts mine to shame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vassy Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 if any of you are into cuttings, i find Tesco egg cartons are ideal for the rooting period. And you can see through the plastic ones so know when rooted easily. Saves on plant pots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
