Round Plant Pots - Future Garden Hydroponics

Thanks @Jenny namaste I was hoping you'd reply.

I have in the past used old compost at the base of some pots but I always microwave it first to ensure all unwanted things get zapped.

Thanks, My biggest challenge will be not incinerating them with the lights as usual!

I love this little beauty growing out of my wall.

I had to see it to believe it.. I fink bats eat mozzies.. They've got plenty of those evidently. Perhaps they will consider putting bat boxes up.. It wouldn't come as a shock. (I'm not a 'chinkist' honestly!) I really like a No 52 chop suey.

Well, those Sweet Peas did not last. Out with the old and in with Million Bells.

Not sure of the name of our blue and pink ones but have only just cut ours back this last week, still had a good few flowers on them, but getting too overgrown and smothering other plants out.
