| All the price I indicate depend of the kind or the size you buy.For example , a boline is not a necessity. Remember ,.this is not a complete list .A lot of thing can be add on this list it depend of what you do or can do. *** You need to use dark bottle beacuse the light can dammage the property of the herb.If you prefere to use little bag , put it in a box . Never forget to clean your tool after you use it .Always use soap and water. The name of the plant should always be written on the bottle or on the bag.It's so easy to forget what is inside. |
