Getting grown plug plants out of modules.
« on: May 05, 2024, 10:15 »
I'm about to plant out my antirrhinums and lobelia plants that I put into modules. When I have done this and upended one side I find that some of the others either fall out or get a bit squashed by the tray. Today I am going to try out using a shoe horn as it is smaller in size that a bulb trowel and they should come out much easier. Whaddya you think?
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

I use a weed membrane peg. Use it like tongs. Saw someone doing it on instagram and it changed my life.

I push gently with a pencil and squeeze them a bit, then hope for the best. :D  Mrs Bouquet
