Greenhouse staging

Again on another trip to the shops saw these drinks stands heading for the dump. Thought to myself definately have a use for them. They are light weight but very strong, easily cleaned and will outlast me. It amazes me the amount of stuff that is produced, used once and then dumped. Well maybe the recession will stop alot of this carry on, shameful waste.

The heated bench

Hasn't been commissioned yet but hopefull next season will be the time. Just using the top as a work bench at the moment and the bottom being used as a place to put the propogator.

My seed trays

These are what I use for seed trays. Was in a shop one day at a deli counter and spotted a load of these ready to be dumped. I heated a 6 inch nail with a blowtorch and put in the drainage holes. All the seeds I sow in these trays are covered with glass which was waste and I cut to size. I find by covering with glass 2 things happen, 1. germination is much quicker and 2. the compost doesn't dry out as quick in the propogator. Normally I dry off the glass first thing each morning and around teatime each evening
