Title: Squeaky clean?
Post by: tim on February 16, 2007, 18:56:38
Shame you can't see the smoke, but I left it too late in the day.

But I had to say that, after the sulphur, we can get sowing.

Cleared everything out of the GH and sprayed it with Armillatox yesterday. Not my favourite job :-\

Firing up the propagators next w.e.

If everything is in a propagator with a lid, do I need the anti-frost heater (I've set it to cut in at about 5degC) on as well, or can it wait until I start potting on?

Kills? Everything on the surface!

Bomb? Yes.
