We can only hope the science of farming has improved since that research was done over ten years ago. I did read recently that so called apartment gardens are gaining traction. It is also interesting to note that growing the full plant to fruit is not necessary to enjoy the many needed micronutrients. There is some indication we can get the same benefits from the plant sprouts alone. That however does not address the issue of sustained farming with saved seed and would mean purchasing new seed supplies frequently.

I gladly volunteer to roll you outside into the sunshine should worst case arrive for you.

Love, Peace and Shelter. lmsp
