I had put a request on Freecycle asking for small pots or seedling pots..and a lady replied with a huge amount of these little black bags....They are great and although they are heavy plastic.....they were going to be landfill if no-one wanted them....She had seen them just down the road from where she lived where a nursery had closed up shop. I get to keep my original pots and never need to find pots of this size ever again...I literally have easy two thousand of these bags.
I had lost all my little pots to the Aloe Vera and had gotten rid of heaps of Aloe on Freecycle..which I posted about earlier....but I still have plenty of Aloe....so I am going to put a sign out the front to sell the rest for $2 a plant...I think they will sell...I priced one the same size at Bunnings and it was $7...Wow!!
I also put out a request for Fowlers Vacola Jars....and found a lovely couple going to visit her father in Bathurst on the weekend. Apparently her father has a heap of jars and they could bring some back for me. How lovely of them...Well here they are..and there are still a 44 gallon drum full of them, if I need more. They make the trip every few weeks.
Below I started using the jars on the same day...
Left: Alcohol Spirit with fruit Salad Sage...and
Right: Alcohol Spirit with Rosemary....
I think it is called a tincture..
But anyway..If they work...I am hoping to be able to eliminate bathroom sprays.
I also covered them with plastic and secured with an elastic band...
They are aging on a sunny windowsill and I will check them in a couple of days.
