Llecnlise the indoor window garden

plants 'not growing satisfactorily. In

well as the earth in the pots the dry

grow under _'Shore normal circum-

worse by the .way the roots' grow in

When potted the i-opts permeate the
soil in the pots and when they reach
the outside oi the han of earth tin-_v
circle around the soil, and lie in a
mass between the earth and the pot.
Unless the pots are protected from the
sun and air the pots dry out and bs-
come very hot, parching the support-

requires a lot of feeding the manure
