What’s a grow bag?

Popular in places that have limited garden space...

A growbag is a large plastic bag filled with a growing medium and used for growing plants, usually tomatoes or other salad crops. The growing medium is usually based on a soilless organic material such as peat, coir, composted green waste, composted bark or composted wood chips, or a mixture of these. Various nutrients are added, sufficient for one season's growing, so frequently only planting and watering are required of the end-user. Planting is undertaken by first laying the bag flat on the floor or bench of the growing area, then cutting access holes in the uppermost surface, into which the plants are inserted.

They're sort of flatish bags of growing compost that are usually placed in trays, of course drilling holes and filling your tray with soil will do the same job.

I teach general subjects to children with special educational needs. I've done some PE but we have specialists for that but I do outdoor activities along with instructors from the county outdoor group. I have taught practically every subject over the years but when I went on the geog field trip I was asked to go with a mainschool group to ensure they had the right staff : pupil ratio. It was a nice change but I trained for and always taught within SEN - wouldn't swap it for the world.

That’s cool. Had my share of autistic and Asperger’s students when I was teaching English in Turkey. Wasn’t an easy job. Respect [emoji173]️

No it's not easy, but that's mainly because of the paperwork. We have lots of complex needs and behavioural problems to deal with but it really is very rewarding and we always make sure the kids have fun as they learn.
