Comfrey Common - 64750

A perennial herb with lower leaves that are bristly, up to 30cm long and attached to winged leaf stalks that emerge from the base of the plant. Smaller leaves that are also bristly but lack petioles are borne on 60-90cm tall flowering stems. Flowers are bell-shaped and the colour is either yellow or blue hues, they form distinctive curled clusters. Great plant to include in your composting. We recommend using gloves when working with this product. This snippet from the growing-guides.co.uk website explains Comfrey's value to the Organic Gardener... Comfrey is a particularly valuable source of fertility to the organic gardener. It is very deep rooted and acts as a dynamic accumulator,[6] mining a host of nutrients from the soil. These are then made available through its fast-growing leaves (up to 1.8-2.3 kilograms (4.0-5.1 lb) per plant per cut) which, lacking fibres, quickly break down to a thick black liquid. There is also no risk of nitrogen robbery when comfrey is dug into the soil as the C:N ratio of the leaves is lower than that of well-rotted compost. Comfrey is an excellent source of potassium, an essential plant nutrient needed for flower, seed and fruit production. Its leaves contain 2-3 times more potassium than farmyard manure, mined from deep in the subsoil, tapping into reserves that would not normally be available to plants. https://growing-guides.co.uk/companion-planting-comfrey/

Early Grow 3-Bay Electric Propagator - 9315

Another goodie for the serious sower! Sturdy, high-quality Early Grow Electric Propagator made in the UK. Start off those early seedlings to get a great head start Comes complete with watering tray, capillary mat and 3 individual propagator trays with lids. The Early Grow Kit contains a heated bottom unit (no thermostat - it is set to a constant 20 degrees approx); capillary mat and tray for keeping your individual propagator trays watered and 3 individual propagators with holes in the bottom to allow moisture to be both sucked up and trickle out as necessary, along with individual lids. Seeds can be planted into punnets and placed into the containers, or sown directly into seed raising mix in the containers. The tray provided sits inside the unit with the capillary mat on top. The mat is wider than the tray, this is so it can dangle over the side to absorb the water from beneath - the mat should be moist at all times. Place the individual propagators on top of the mat after initially watering the seed raising mix (best to do this by sitting containers or punnets into a tray of water.) Fill the unit with water as per the included instructions, once this is done, there should be sufficient moisture while the seeds germinate. If you use containers that were not provided with the Early Grow, and particularly if they do not have perforations in the bottom for the water to be absorbed, be sure to water the punnets or seed tray as required and still keep the mat moist underneath these containers. We suggest when filling the unit with water that you use tepid water to enable the propagator to reach its temperature quickly to begin with. This item has a NZ plug. Propagator size: 540mmx215mmx60mm. We recommend you wash and disinfect the containers at the end of each season, then store in your shed, garage or wherever is convenient out of direct sunlight.
