Those are great looking flasks, what is your growing area like?
How many plants do you think you have there? Looks like you will be having lots of fun deflasking....Jean

Nice! So how much did all those flasks cost?

Got through customs with no problems? Did you have to mark off that you had plants or aricultural products or something?

For the first post......I grow outside all year round in a hot house and have around 600 plants........now to be over 700 or so I guess.

Yes I marked that I had plants and they inspected them when I got off the plane in Australia. They just check for disease.

I got through customs fairly quickly and also had no trouble carrying them on the plane as carry on luggage but some countries i have heard are funny about it.
