		<description><![CDATA[I think my favorite plastic-free gardening tip is to use unglazed ceramic pots buried in the ground for watering! It&#039;s supposed to conserve even more water than drip irrigation and takes the guesswork out of figuring out how much soil needs! ]]></description>

 Some might, but others need the drying out process to keep them viable and free from mold.  I&#039;m no expert, however, so just enjoy whatever you&#039;ve got going on! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ @Eve Stavros Hey Eve, what if I just let the seeds blow in the wind the way they do in nature?  Won&#039;t I get new plants wherever the seeds land and start growing?  I am really enjoying the wildness of my yard right now and discovering what plants I can eat (dandelions, for example) that I didn&#039;t plant there on purpose.  My arugula has turned into big vines of little white flowers, which I found out are edible and quite delicious!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jay, wow, I can&#039;t wait to see that film.  What a beautiful website.  And here is a quote about the seed balls, which is just gorgeous:

&quot;What we have to do is offer seeds to Nature and in order to protect them from the animals, rodents, and the birds we simply have to make clay balls and sow them before the rainy season starts. And we’re talking about offer, because this is practically what we do is to try to give Nature the possibility to restore itself. If we try to do something more, then we’ll create problems. So it’s not a work. Because Nature is our mother. And if Nature dies, humanity dies, god dies.&quot;]]></description>
