What propagator would be best value for money

There's another recent thread about propagators somewhere on the Board. I can't remember if there was a general conclusion, it depends what you what you want to grow in it too.

Sankey 300 is a good size and reliable - think other posters recommended it too.

Hi

I hope no-one minds me posting this (because I work for Greenhouse Sensation ) but Gradeners' World did say that the Vitopod was the best buy. It has also just received a great review in a gardening magazine.

It is large, van be made taller with height extensions and can be controlled to 1C. You can read the reviews on our website.

I'm actually raising chillies in my Vitopod at the moment because I've entered the chilli growing competition in the chilliman.org website (that's a whole other story though).

Thanks
Emma

I've just seen one in B&Q for £11.48, standard seed tray size, if you're after a cheap one. Don't know how good it'll be though.

Hi Emma,

Welcome to the Vine. Post away I dn't think anyone will mind.

Didn't lok that closely to be honest - it was the only type they'd got though - it wasn't an adjustable one - just a basic model. I guess it would do the job though.
Of note, our B&Q prices tend to be different than mainland stores, sometimes higher, sometimes lower.

That is the type I have, but it must be about twenty years old.

Does the Sankey 300 have an adjustable thermostat?

I'm looking to treat myself but don't know which one to buy but I think I would like an adjustable one.

Many thanks,
Ogilvie

Deir I go out and buy anouther

2 heated propogators and 8 unheated ones all fully in use is I think quite enough for now!
