I wonder if people are going to start attempting to propagating vegetables from cuttings? It seems like something that you could teach a child to do in grade school. You don't have to be the greatest botanist on the planet to do this.

If you live somewhere with a moderately long growing season, take the suckers from your tomato plants and root them for a second crop for fall. My grandmother did this 50 years ago. ‘Free’ plants.

We’re using the (empty, washed and drilled drainage holes) protein tubs that we use for our cattle, as planters.

Kiddo’s preschool class grew peanuts (oh, the horrors!) in styrofoam cups. We grew peanuts in the garden for years from those 4 little plants.
