Analysis of Air-Pot trial
A selection of 19 gardenersclick.com members were picked for the trial (all had signed up for product testing).They were invited to test Air-Pots designed for growing potatoes or tender crops. In keeping with the social networking aspect of the website, the trialists provided a stream of commentary about their experiences with the Air-Pots. This appeared on the Product Testing notice board & photo gallery, their own personal pages (blogs, photos, comments) and chat room messages written to others. This information, together with responses to a follow up questionnaire, have been analysed to give an overview of performance.

Air-pruning pots
Significant gains can be made in terms of quality and environmental impact through the study of plant stress dynamics. In the root environment, for example, containers with punctured side-walls promote ‘air-pruning’ of roots as a result of stress; a technique that is increasingly being accepted for woody, nursery-stock plants.
