Growing Stuff

Even though I have a black thumb and can grow only dust, I persist in posting about growing stuff.  I think I am trying to imbibe gardening talents through these posts.  It isn't working, but .......

First

 
Look closely. See what it is?  A disposable diaper!!
 
According to "Lady Bird ln", putting a disposable diaper in a planter/pot keeps the moisture in place - especially if one is a gardener who forgets to water.  Go here for all the particulars.  Such ingenuity!
 
 
 
Next
 
This is a potato box.
 
 
According to "Tipnut.com", you can grow 100 pounds of potatoes in a four foot square box.  Talk about container gardening!!! This post contains several methods for doing this incredible crop growing.  Take a look here
 
 
Please let me know if you try either of these or if you have already tried with or without success.  I would love to know some results.
 
 
Meanwhile ...... keep it simple and make it real.
