These things just seem to be impossible to find here in the EU and I realy don't want to have to spend 20$ just on shipping these things from the US, I'm trying to set it all up on a shoe string.

So anyways I was thinking (Danger) and I'm sure I remember a few years ago reading in this forum that it was possible to use transparent plastic and wrap it on tightly with a few elastic bands?
What you think? Or do you have any other alternatives in mind?

Cheers Alex

Back in my beginning I used baby food jars with their caps. Drilled a 1,2mm hole through the caps and taped the hole with 3 layers micropore.
Since a few years I use pp food containers

Micropropagation is science!!!
