Easily released Cord knot tying round a recycle box
"john west" wrote in message
... I have a number of Bamboo Plants planted in unwanted Council Recycle boxes. After a while they are almost impossible to get out of the box, because the roots have grown so compacted. I intend sawing down one side of the box and folding it down so i can just slide the plant out of the box. To re-use the box again i need to tie a long cord around the box to keep the cut side in its original upright position for the next plant to grow in it. Since good Tying Cord is expensive does anyone know of a good 'Gripping' Knot that i can easily 'release' at a later date without having to cut the cord? Inserted missing OP "Rod Speed" wrote in message ... "Nick Maclaren" wrote in message ...

The best knot for that is the reef knot, which you can tie tightly on a corner and move. Alternatively, use a surgeon's knot, followed by an extra thumb knot, making the top half into a reef knot. The securest one is the constrictor knot, but that is a b*gg*r to undo. I use all of those and more. Truckers hitch works much better and surprise surprise, being quick and easy to apply and remove is the reason truckers use it. Perhaps you could explain, or even better show an example, so that we are talking about the same thing. I was taught the truckers hitch 50 years ago & it needs an anchor point at both ends. -- Regards wasbit |

I couldn’t find a good example last time I tried. particularly with how the internal 'pulley' is done. I was taught the truckers hitch 50 years ago I was too. & it needs an anchor point at both ends. Nothing to stop you joining both ends in your situation. |

Lonely Obnoxious Cantankerous Auto-contradicting Senile Ozzie Troll Alert!
On Thu, 14 Jan 2021 06:17:32 +1100, cantankerous trolling geezer Rodent
Speed, the auto-contradicting senile sociopath, blabbered, again: FLUSH trollshit -- "Who or What is Rod Speed? Rod Speed is an entirely modern phenomenon. Essentially, Rod Speed is an insecure and worthless individual who has discovered he can enhance his own self-esteem in his own eyes by playing "the big, hard man" on the InterNet." https://www.pcreview.co.uk/threads/r...d-faq.2973853/ |

I grow Phyllostachys nigra ("Black" bamboo), and it's taken 7 years to double its clump-size. It hasn't spread. Same here in more than decade it hasn't really spread. Its' got a lot thicker in the middle of the clump but hasn't spread by more than a 6 inches in any direction at ground level. Now some shots are coming out at 45 degrees rather than vertical. I cut off shoots that don't end up reaching to the sky. For most of the time it also stayed at around 5 to 6 feet but now some shoots are up at 10 feet, again not a problem because they are thin and airy - think tall grass rather than tree. -- mailto : news {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |
