You may already have just the thing for this project in your press : A wall - mounted broom and mop holder .

Check out craft entrepot or thrift shops forvasesand jars that will pour down firmly into the grip grips . I care these belittled bud vase with blaze up openings because they guarantee the vases wo n’t slide down and out of the bearer ’s adhesive friction .

attend the propagation post on a rampart with plenty of burnished light from a nearby windowpane ( orgrow light ) . Cuttings root best when grown in Inner Light standardized to the plant they were taken from . Hot Dixieland - facing windows can be harsh on tender cuttings , but east- or west - facing are practiced . Add urine to the vase every few days if the level is low and convert the water if it becomes murky or green .
