English term or phrase: pipe cleaner
When the usual accidents occur during the care of your garden,
or if your plants suffer the catastrophe of a fallen light fixture,
support your plants so that they may recover their original
sturdiness. For sprouts and seedlings, the simplest method is to take
a rigid piece of wire, form a "C" at one end, and bend the "C" to a
right angle to the wire. Set the straight end in the soil and rest the
stem in the "C". Pipe cleaners are ideal for seedlings.

"When tying up your tomato plants, use a soft-like material and keep moving your ties as your plants grow (usually every 4 to 7 days). Using a nylon type of string is a bad idea because it can easily cut into the tomato plant if a windy day or thunderstorm should occur. Purchasing ***a bag of some pipe cleaners*** are perfect and inexpensive. They can even be reused in your garden for the following year."

pipe = pipa, teava, conducta. nu cred ca o sarmulita pentru curatat pipe de fumat poate sustine niste plante, cat de firave ar fi.

neutral  MMUK (X): D-ul Bologa, cu tot respectul, dacă îmi permiteți, sârma de curățat țevi este mult prea mare pentru răsadurile tipic britanice. Am și eu în seră și, credeți-mă, sunt subțiri ca o unghie.
