grand job! Can you tell us a bit more about your cage.
What did you use for the netting and where did you get it from. Does the cage lift off?

The frames are built with 2 x 1 timbers, sectional, and tied together with baler twin, yes they do lift off quite easily.
The netting is debri netting off ebay and stapled to the frames.

The Wife gets them from Co-op for free. She works there.
They are the flower buckets they use and i either cut the bottoms off to put in the growbags or drill drainholes in the bottom and use as standalone.

Thanks for that.
Would they ever sell/give them to non workers ?

They throw them out, we have stopped getting them as i have about 100 in all.
Never seen them sell them, they just skip em as far as i know.
I work at the local hospital and am looking around the labs as they have deep polystyrene boxes that bottles of chemicals get delivered in. they my next requirements. :)

Thanks for that I'll look out, do they do this at specific time of month week e.t.c ? Or do you just ask because I've never seen them on sale I don't think.

I think its just when they have them - the last lot I had were strapped together with some sticky tape. They are usually by the flower displays. Ask a t customer services if you can'r see them :)
