plaintiger: Yes, I picked one up today. Mine is like a propergator but its called a Hydro Greenhouse. You can grow anything in it and use it inside and out. Whatever you grow is fed automatically by a water bottle with nutrients in. It says in me book of destructions there is no fear of soil born diseases, insects or weeds as it uses no soil.
I never heard of it before today, but I was looking round the toy dept at Toyrus, saw it and picked it up.
I got it set up already with plant seeds.

Foxy Lady: i have it from one site that it's "the growing of plants without soil," Ma'am. and here's one of the few sites i've found so far that doesn't look to be trying to sell a specific line of hydroponics equipment.

Foxy Lady: as i wrote that i was thinking about a wooded area not far from here where i used to explore when my Mom first moved the family to NY. those woods seemed so big to me then, but they'd only seem a little patch now...and i don't know how i'd even get to them without crossing someone's property.

i'm not sure where i'd find a wooded area on long island that hadn't already been all picked of berries... :/
