Re: Plants
It may be easier to drop by the local office supply store and pick up a box
of miscellaneous rubber bands. That way you don't have to clobber anyone. ;)
Cutting them with a scissors is no problem after they are no longer needed.
Just dry the scissors like you would any other kitchen, pardon me, fishroom
utensil.
One of the local bristlenose breeders takes stainless steel screws and runs
them through a big piece of zucchini when he wants to sink the veggies.
All the best!
