Hope everyone enjoys.....I did have a look around before starting a new thread, but didn't see any reference.

I think (given favourable growing conditions) there is a tremendious profit margin.....it's a matter of scale.

I found the introduction of new varieties of veg very interesting and the system to store carrots over winter.

A very enjoyable watch & look forward to tomorrow's episode.

hi Dave et al

I thought the simply enormous tomato growing facility was incredible! (the greenhouse not the tomato plant) will watch the next episode too.

Amazing wasn't it - tomatoes growing a foot per day!!!!

...yes, and amazing to learn that they grow (as Paula said) 1ft per day.

Also, I thought the experiment with light resulting in the ability to change taste quite remarkable.
