Watching The Weather & Housekeeping

 

It's all change in the forecast for the next couple of weeks, It was originally supposed to be raining today, however that didn't happen. There was a heavy dew on the car this morning, but looking at the over night lows we are going up again and the lowest of 6C so it looks like I have a couple of weeks of still harvesting tomatoes as they ripen.  

I brought home the Containerwise Shallow 40L Long Life Propagation Tray (40 Cell)  that I grew the lettuce in to wash and clean ready for re-use. I've had that particular Propagation tray since June 2019, it has served me well and it's still as good as the day I bought it. 

I find that hot water & a little washing up liquid and a tooth brush is the best way to get them really clean and ready for re-use. Yes it takes a few goes as after each wash & rinse as they dry you see the areas you missed and that need further cleaning, but its a good feeling when they are nice and pristine once more. It's so much easier cleaning these at home rather than on the plot.
