Good stuff Sue, Another good container for waste is one of those
large kitchen trash bins with the step on peddle that opens the lid.
I also liked your idea of using newspaper?(I think you mentioned
this to me at one time)??
Cheers Wendy (Wondering when this post is going to drop off??)


Yes, just remember to open the papers and flatten from the middle
of each section. It makes it easy to clean the bench between
plants. Just grab the 4 corners (1 or 2 sheets) and you can haul
away the litter. The next layer of paper is clean and ready for
you to pot up the plant. Any spillage can be picked up and
reused - this is after all a clean surface. When your done and
all spillage is recovered. You can unpot on this sheet and take
the trash and used sheet away.

That way you are always making divisions and potting up on a
clean surface.
