Weekend Gardening: Super Cool tools
With spring finally upon us, thoughts of gardening are starting to sprout and I just had to share a couple cool garden things with you. I'm absolutely bananas over this potato planter bag (have you seen it yet)? It's a reusable planter for growing potatoes (great for patios, balconies and small gardens like we have). With handles on the side for easy handling, the velcro flap on the side opens up so you don't have to dig up the potatoes when they're ready to harvest. Just open the flap and voila ($9.99).
And how fun would it be to have a time lapse plant cam? Watch your garden grow in fast-forward; the camera is weatherproof and automatically takes photos and videos at set time intervals. You can also use it for other things such as bird watching, events, etc. So fun.

I love that potato bag! perfect for small gardens!! (and lazy gardeners like me)
OK, I officialy want one of those cameras. I could gather evidence: little ones burgling the strawberries, pigeons scoffing the lettuce. It would be like garden CSI.
Such a good segment yesterday - I wanted them all.
OH my gosh. That time lapsed cam is the perfect idea for my master gardener brother who has a birthday coming up. So glad I saw this post. (And the potato bag makes me giggle; how great!)
silverpebble - so true! who's been stealing my veggies?
Jan-what are those flowers in the third pic?
GORGEOUS...I'd love to try planting some!
(I have 'juglone' issues around here, tho....)
Thanks.....Treena
Hi Treena,
Not sure. Hard to tell isn't it? Almost looks like two different kinds.
Anyone?

Flowers in the third picture are, i'd guess, Zinnias
