The Future of Farming (?)


I visited my sister and mother this weekend. I spotted this tomato and pepper plant on their balcony. My sister asked if she should get a bigger pot for them. Mind you, the pepper is in an 8 oz. cup! The tomato in a gallon or so container, probably the one it came in.

I promptly went out and bought a couple of cheapo plastic pots and some organic fertilizer from a big hardware chain. I was looking for those "earth" pots or reservoir-pots, but they did not have any. Too bad. Also, isn't time that vegetable tags have not only row-planting instructions, but pot or planter instructions?
