    Well made product

    Received the wicking bed by Australia Post in two parcels, so easy to carry and also to put together.

    Haven't really had enough time to see how well the plants grow yet. but it looks OK so far.

    I pressed a 6mm S/S rod into the small hole in the centre of the filling pipe cap and cut it to lenght, so now have dipstick to check the water level. Very Happy.
