| Greenhouse Propagators |
 |
Greenhouse Propagators - a greenhouse propagator is a must-have piece of gardening equipment if you intend to make the utmost use of your greenhouse and extend your growing season to almost a 365 days a year operation. Propagators come in many varied shapes and sizes but all are designed to create a warm micro-climate ideal for germinating seeds. As with anything in life, you get what you pay for, and propagators are no different; there's the budget range of unheated models - just perfect for a windowsill or sunny location - dig a little deeper into your pocket for the heated base version, all of which will raise the ambient temperature of the compost and well suited to a heated greenhouse; or go large with the thermostatically controlled, unerringly accurate self-contained units which generate the bottom heat essential for successful germination and also provide an area to grow on your seedlings in safety.
And if you're of the DIY persuasion, you can always construct your own custom-made propagation bench with a little bit of know-how and a set of our soil warming cables; if space is limited we've heat mats and pads; there's a range of thermometers to accurately record the temperature of your seed compost; individual pots with vented lids and much, much more! |

Indoor Grow Light Garden |
 |
from £69.95

Light is an essential element for plant growth and there's always plenty of frustrated gardeners wandering around in the winter months twiddling their thumbs because their allotment, vegetable patch and kitchen garden growing activities have been curtailed by low light levels - but expect to see their faces and plants light up at the sight of the Indoor Grow Light Garden.
The innovative Indoor Grow Light Garden includes 4 reusable trays that can grow the plants until they are mature enough to go into the garden without the need for transplanting into a bigger pot; these trays sit beneath the 2 x 2ft 24W fluorescent bulbs for healthy vigorous growth. Plants can’t tell the full spectrum lighting from sunlight, and the bulbs don’t buzz or flicker on start up, last up to an impressive 10,000 hours and use less electricity than a standard bulb.
The lights are housed in the canopy of the sturdy and handsome aluminium stand that has an adjustable height (up to 38cm H from base) and a reflective hood to maximise usable light. And if that’s not easy enough, you can treat yourself to an optional self-watering insert tray which introduces a 3.4 litre water reservoir to the light garden, watering seedlings automatically with the right amount of moisture for up to 14 days, leaving you to just top up this clever table top Indoor Grow Light Garden system as and when required. |
