Nice to be back in the studio teaching a bit of โ€˜quick and dirtyโ€™ letterpress set up so that E and L could make a fabric protest banner in less than 60 mins (+ a later 10 mins of ironing). Team work :-)

Thank you. It is ok once you get the planting mix wet but not too wet! I have double stacked them this time with big seeds in between to see if that is better.

Thank you. It takes a while to get the coir consistency right and then it is ok. I have tried doubling the height with the bigger seeds sandwiched in the middle. They do dry out fast so you have to keep an eye on them.
