Rather than scrodging aound feeling for the bumps in an opaque watering can, put feed such as Tomerite into 4 pint milk bottles, nicely marked with the measure, see through, and can be done in the comfort of the kitchen.

That's another one to add to the list of what to do with all the plastic milk bottles!  

At the moment most of mine are in the small greenhouse, waiting for the water butts to fill up so I can fill them to make more room in the butts for even more lovely rainwater!!!!

I've also got one that has tiny holes punched in the lid, which I use for my seedlings, so I don't over water them!

Well, I've now got 24 milk bottles full of water, plus 2 nd a bit 5 litre tubs that used to hold tile adhesive.  Keep looking around for other things to hold water, as the water butts are overflowing agian, and I hate wasting the water!!!!
