I am a student in my final year studying product design.
The project I am working on at the moment is concerning urban gardening
in small spaces (indoors and outdoors).
I have recently been looking at ways of trying to make it as
convenient/easy as possible for gardeners to enjoy the benefits of 'grow
your own'.
I would really appreciate any feedback from people who grow their own
plants in small spaces, what methods they use and if they encounter any
issues. Also how do you generally dispose of the old plants/soil, (eg do
you compost or do you throw it away in a bin?).
I have also been looking at various 'instant grow pots' available on the
market, so if any one has any experience of these products feedback
(negative and positive) would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Will

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in
the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are
cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is
spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of
its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the
clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower, 16 April 1953
