Potting table?

lolly5648

What do people use when they are repotting plants? At the moment I am using some wood over the arms of 2 garden chairs. Are there such things as potting tables? I need something small and weatherproof and a reasonable height.

I picked up a pine computer desk at a boot fair a year or two ago. The pullout tray for the keyboard is great for extra space!

I'd keep you eye open for one of those specially designed green plastic potting trays. I think they only cost a pound or so. They have a raised side to prevent spillage, can rest on anything, and double up as a watering tray.

Weve got an old metal camping table were using at the mo- its good you can move it about to where the sun is, I have all my pots on it at the mo

pickd up at a bootfair but well too heavy for actually taking camping.

You overly houseproud wimps! I use my dining table and if there's any compost left on it - it just adds extra flavour!

I used an old greenhouse bench, handy for storage underneath too.

Thanks for all the replies - from which I gather there is no such thing as a proper potting table. I will look out for something rustproof in metal as I want to leave it out all year.

There is such a thing, I bought one for my mother a few years ago as a christmas present it was about £85, just found one similar
