thanks guys
the hubby bought a 1.5 litre spray bottle at Bunnings yesterday for spraying blackberry poison on the bloody oleander that refuses to die
it has a pump up cylinder so I used it to spray the mushie box
will go back and get a cheaper non-chemical standard one

it was heaps easier to spray the box and my other houseplants got a hose as well

I also got a 5 litre one to spray the broccoli with 'organic' caterpillar killer as I am over the cabbage moth as well
but the 5 litre spray bottle might be a bit of overkill for the mushie box  

hey Trout - where do you store your mushroom box?
we put ours inside as the hubby thought the mice might eat them at night it they were in the garage
he was going to put the box in the linen cupboard but wifie put a stop to that
i even bought some hormone powder to make cuttings from the neighbours fig tree - we pick the figs every year so figure after 27 years, its about time to grow my own tree

I have a closed off area on my front veranda where I store the air con etc during winter and it is pretty "Gloomy" in there.
I have also grown them in the wash house which also works pretty well.

the hubby suggested the laundry & the bathroom but both are very sunny rooms

so the spare it remains for the moment

sprinkled twice today am and pm
hope that is right
it is very dry here at the moment

you want to keep the soil damp but not to wet so while it's still warm you could probably do it two or three times a day just don't let them dry out too much, good luck Once they start they should really take off and give you a nice supply for quite a while. I put ours down stairs when I have them so somewhere where it nice and warm and dark and same as when the mango's are on.

I had a dead globe on my Disco's low beam so I went to town and bought a full set of 4 new Halogen globes and replaced the lot, my Discovery has individual globes for high and low beam.
I replaced them with a set of H7 Plus 120 globes and they are now twice as bright and it only took me 20 min or so to do the job :yahoo:

A tad expensive at about $35 per globe But cheaper and easer than having to replace 4 sealed beams :good:

Are you forgetting you have a mate in the business here.
I could have got them a lot cheap for you.

Yep I forgot
Are there any brighter more powerful globes I can fit to my 2004 Discovery2  than these ?
