The Organic Self-Watering Planter from Back to the Roots makes the tomato-growing process easy.
The entire system is contained within a large glass mason jar, which takes up virtually no space on a home countertop. Inside this piece, there's biochar and nutrient-rich soil that help to boost the potential for plant growth. In order to deliver water to the organic cherry tomato seeds that sit in the soil, the system uses a clay spout to deliver fresh nutrients. Water can be added once weekly to this clay olla pot in order to ensure the growing seeds get exactly the care they need, without being constantly fussed over.
This kit is ideal for aspiring urban gardeners who want to enjoy produce that's been freshly grown at home but lack the physical space to set up a full garden.
