Plant Labels & Master Lists

Durgan · March 10, 2014

I screwed around with almost every plant marker over the years. Finally I ordered a case of 1000, 5/8 by 5 inches, yellow and one time white.
When you want a marker you want it now. I mark using a black sharpie and it stays for the year. Sometime I reuse the markers by wiping the marking with acetone, available from a pharmacy.
The marker is placed near the stake marking the plant. If required higher up, I punch a hole in the marker and hang using a wire pipe cleaner for convenience.
No more screwing around looking for a marker when required. A thousand lasts me around three years and possibly more with care.
Here is where I ordered them http://www.durgan.org/URL/?ZZBIJ
Work Smart!
