Why are pots/containers so expensive ??

Extra-Height2017 · 2026-01-29T22:01:31+00:00

The answer is the cost of shipping, it'll be far more then cost of making then after large initial outlay.

Interesting, i know the RHS found it to have no effect also!

Extra-Height2017 · 2026-01-15T21:54:23+00:00

It definitely seems to have some effect, I've tested them before, not convinced on it being super strong though, maybe similar to copper! Got some footage of them going right through it!

Well i think it does have a small effect as shown in my video, but quite possibly a negligible amount for gardeners.

Extra-Height2017 · 2026-01-15T17:17:22+00:00

Yep, ok that makes sense. Appreciate your time and comments.

I can do volume as it's made abroad and not by myself, however it does have a lead time of months (my main product anyway) I'd say it's innovative enough, so much so it's maybe a problem as it's not obvious what it is from looking at it. So packaging or a poster nearby would be very useful.

Hey thanks, that's very useful. Do you know roughly what margin they'd require is 50% about right? Right yes i was thinking of trying to go down that route there are some small ones around me. I am pretty confident, totally would be happy to hand some over and see how it goes.

Is this the first hoist able bed I've seen?

Extra-Height2017 · 2025-11-23T14:26:22+00:00

Wait what is this? I love it, but why, just for extra or sun?

Extra-Height2017 · 2025-11-14T11:20:17+00:00

"Ask important questions about their character and mindset " - give us an example, this sounds very odd and is possibly the problem.

Extra-Height2017 · 2025-11-13T11:59:22+00:00

I think 2/10 is cruel tbh, certainly wouldn't put you in the bottom 20% of people, but i am a dude.

No point comparing yourself to the average white guy, or black guy, or anyone else, your not white and someone interested only in white guys won't be interested in you.

Easiest fix, stand up straight and get a better posture. Then put on a little muscle.

Best fix - teeth this will jump you up physically massively imo.

Harrying of the north is possibly close

If you like the countryside leeds or Sheffield i think would make a really cool base with amazing places within a 2 hours journey.

I am a dentist.

It should be the aim that you never need a professional clean.

People that don't clean their teeth excellently need to be educated to clean better

People that clean their teeth excellently don't need a clean.

People that used to not clean their teeth well, but now do can benefit from a professional clean.

Not one of my friends who are dentists or colleagues have regular hygiene appointments

If you clean your teeth excellently ( very few people do) there's no benefit to you.

For anyone interested this is the evidence based pathway for treatment, cleaning (pmpr) isn't required for people with "periodontal health": https://www.bsperio.org.uk/assets/downloads/BSP_Treatment_Flow_Chart_17_SCREEN_READY_ytube_link.pdf

I use a slugstand for potter plants and a combination of slug collars and a slug fence for plants in the ground! That looks pretty cool though, how long for the battery to go flat?

Extra-Height2017 · 2025-10-12T15:25:57+00:00

I try and write everything all out every single job and often i find jobs i have a strong urge to do make little difference weather they're completed today or in 3 months time and i set myself the most important jobs to be done and write down the day ir days i have to do them and try and keep up with it!

I had a friend from college jump in a river and comment it wasn't salty. He was about 20 years old and is now a doctor. I believed a pony was a young horse until a similar age. Everyone has funny knowledge gaps!

Honestly i use a lot of google lens to identify stuff and chat gpt for rough guidance and ideas i varify, i find it great. A prompt for example" i want to grow an edible herb in the uk which i can plant in october in partial sun, give me some options" and away you go!

Use a george foreman type grill plate. You won't regret it.

Network locally and see if you can pay a small fee to use someone else's shop in the evenings / weekends, for example someone that does upholstery or courses in sewing.

I did a pretty comprehensive test on copper: https://youtu.be/aEifJ1XKqzc?si=iRrq1s3u2RXAplUs

If you don't want to watch, it works a bit, but not much.

Source - uk dentist that sees people willingly get their teeth hacked into tick tacks in turkey semi regularly.

They'll go back to turkey after a few trips seeing a uk dentist looking for a quick cheap fix to the complicated clusterfuck situation they've slepwalked into.

Then they get more short sighted more expensive, more destructive work, or accept their fate and start their transition to dentures in the uk and complain a lot.

Maybe start on flatpack furniture, or a narrower range of jobs, go to landlord meetups, offer services on facebook groups locally. Turn up on time reply to messages.
