Spine was raising heck when reaching into the back of the tent, arthritis & bone spurs made the activity less than fun.
So I built a ‘Lazy Susan’ to fit the 36" tent and am quite pleased with the results. Started with SIP’s from ACI and have moved on to a Bluemat ‘capillary mat’ system so any fabric pot placed is irrigated. The turntable has a proper bearing and spins freely so every plant can be moved to right in front of me…no more reaching.
I know I am not using all the space as fully as I could, that’s a negative but in my case the positives far outpace the downsides.
Supplies for the Lazy Susan(bearing, wood,epoxy) < $125…capillary mat system <$90.

He did! Bigger, and rotated maybe once a day. He was a clever dude, and funny. I miss him too.
