Please answer the question BEFORE
you dash to asda
I'm no expert but I use the contents of grow bags for hanging baskets and put water retaining gel in when planting. Our Asda has folding wheel barrows for £4 somthing but no grow bags left :'(

Wow, thats a good bargain, did you get one?
Yes, I got two (just in case) and now wish I had got more as my dad and sister both want one!
The reason I only got two was that I only 'popped in for one thing', with a basket and you know how it is, by the time you've reached the check out you're buried under mounds of stuff, anyway I looked stupid enough dragging two wheel barrows behind me as it was. (even folding wheel barrows don't fit in a basket!)They might have called the medics if I'd tried to take any more :o
I think I'll organise a dual for the spare one and if it's a draw I'll keep them both! ;D
WELL 2 be truthful i got EIGHT, not 100% certain what to use them for YET, as i asked the question but didn't get the quick reply i needed so i thought, what the heck, they don't eat anything and don't go off, and I'm sure somebody will say that i should have bought some!!! and i don't even grow toms or any foodstuffs, only flowers!! any suggestions how to use them would be great.
Cheers Kev
Eight wheelbarrows or growbags, Kev?
My thoughts entirely ;) ;D

Thanks

Thanks Kev...
Glad you cleared that up...I was about to have nightmares ;D

Sell them on at £1 a piece ;D / swap them for things that you do need/use / keep them till next year and make lots of hanging baskets for your local school/WI/cub pack to sell at a fete
BUT most obvious is to start growing food stuffs, once you give it a go you'll be hooked ;D
