fold the bag over a couple times and use a large heavy duty clip. easy breezy.

I never had 100% success with bag seals until I got one. Go to eaby, I got a 12 incher for $15 + shipping. The peace of mind is certainly worth 5 times that to me.
Sure, people get away with everything from tape, to paper clips. I was never happy with my success rate until I got one though.

there is a post from last year of someone growing puerto ricans in a mycobag, and mentioned in the thread using a Re-Sealer or Euro-Sealer (looking on the web for either of these.. they're they same thing).. you'd find it on one of those As seen on TV Product websites, might be lucky enough to find one at the mall..
but what it claims to do, with just as little power as 2 AA batteries is like if you wanted to seal up your big bag of chips.. somehow it heat seals it shut... I have no idea how good it works.. for either just potato chips or mycobags
for a 14 buck gadget, its a bargin compared to an impulse sealer...
my 2 cents...

I actually had spotty results from the eurosealer. The thing worked well, but the batteries in mine would die after about 2 uses. Then the third bag would be spottily sealed and I might not notice it.
Re: Anno's not using a sealer, he is a very skilled, and thorough cultivator. He probably gets away with a lot of things that I wouldn't recomend.
8" sealer $20 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2929064741&category=1290
12" sealer $30 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2929481829&category=1290
BTW, notice that last seller has 50 of them available? It might be bad ebay policy, but a similar guy was selling them when I got mine. I emailed him directly and said, "you'll never sell all of those, sell me one directly for $15" He did. Now, a brand new 12" impulse sealer that lasted years for $15, or a eurosealer for $15? Which sounds like the better deal?
