    They have em (not vivosun but similar) at the grow shop down the road but they instead like to recommend the silicone brushes.

    Also, what a wonderful First World Growing Problem.

    Horrible things, bit like trimming a hedge with a chainsaw... I prefer to do it the right way, nice pair of sharp scissors and reflect on the three months I carefully raised and tended my plants
