Forceps? Did you mean tweezers?

Spraying bottle, gardening wire, stakes, cotton and cotton swabs.

I'm making a list.

For fungus, a good powder one that makes into a solution. I like Mancozeb. You can use the powder as a dessicant, I apply it with a small paintbbrush.

A good quality acaricide

Imacloporid for pests.

Long forceps, cutting and sterilising, gear.

Either a specialist fertiliser like Klite, or a basic 20.20.20.

Large bark for Phals, fine bark for dens etc.

Kelpmax.

It's in an unlabelled bottle. A friend gave it to me.
