grab a steam cleaner or pressure cleaner. Glyphosate is water soluble. just do it where it doesnt drain/spray on your other plants or, God forbid, your home brwe

Mantis, I have a spare ibc you can have for a lot less than that. Give me a call. 03 5998 7102. Young kids, so keep it between 5pm and 10 pm. Did you call that bloke I gave you the number for? I collected a couple, and I don't think I need the second one!!!!!!. Have not decided yet, but I am sure that funds will have the wife decide for me.

i was looking at my intact IBC the other day and wondering about diffrent ways of cutting it.... so as tyo get the largest area of grow bed. norm,ally we cut it top and bottom but what if we cut it side and side? this will result in a larger 'foot print' no? only issue i can see is the tap outlet will mean that there is a weirod deviation in top edge? not sure if its worth looking into or not? but i like to try and think outside the square
