Re: Greenhouse Tour
Thanks for sharing pictures Dave. I guess at flowering time it looks even more colourful .
Those are nice big trays you are using. Are they made to hold plant containers ?

Re: Greenhouse Tour
Hi Jens
They come in all sorts of sizes, and are usually sold as gravel trays and the big oblong ones may well be growbag trays, I use quite a few myself.

Re: Greenhouse Tour
Jens,
Thanks for the comments Jens....Bill's correct, the very large ones are grow bag trays, many garden centers sell them.

Re: Greenhouse Tour
I noticed the trays as well - good idea. Do you water from below (so the plants soak the water up from the tray) or from above so the trays collect surplus water? I work in a primary school and have salvaged the trays they use. Ideal for potting etc. When I put my plants in the cold frame I actually put them altogether in cat litter tray!
Re: Greenhouse Tour
Hi Sue,
I actually water from the top, mainly because the staging isn't quite level and the water just runs to one end if I water from below so some plants would get loads and other wouldn't get any.......

Dave, how beautifully neat and tidy it all is!!
No forbies? Still you have Lithops so I'll let you off.
