    my wife bought me a capillary matting set the other day and havuing set it all up using wallpaper trough and old watering can my young plants are really thriving. My sweat plants have rooted into the matting as are most of the other seedlings. All seedlings have adopted a straight up attitude so I would recommend these to everyone just for improving your plants

    Its great stuff Quba. But in fact you can use the principle without buying the matting material itself. A growbag tray covered with an old towel with one end in a bucket of water will work well.
