Fill it up with water, plug it in, and harvest plants when they are ready.  It all sounds too good to be true!  Extension Agents Nick Roy and Dylan Gentry are experimenting with a new product that will be later used for educational purposes in gardening and cooking classes.  The click and grow devices have been placed in various indoor environments to test their performance. The first crop being grown is basil and will be followed with tomatoes. Details from Nick Roy, Adair County Extension Agent for Agriculture & Natural Resources, Columbia, KY.
