FIRE! Keep an eye on those black pots.
« on: November 10, 2014, 04:13:25 AM »
Had a stack of cheap plastic buckets outside in the sun.(I use them as pots as they are bigger and cheaper)
Nearly started a fire all by themselves. Good to know, and look out for in this heat.

Sucks, but AU-OS trade isn't cost effective or reliable anymore. Aussie trade encouraged, especially for cactus, dragonfruit, and colour fruited columns.

Hit the inside with some sand paper, takes away the reflective surface (think magnifying glass).

Good idea, but I went one better, drilled drainage holes and filled them.
70 new plants for the greenhouse.
