(iroH A COLLEGE STATION vegetables In a mlnlgarden can be educational and fun for youiigsters and adults," says Gordon R. Powell, fruit and vegetable marketing for the Texas Agricultural Extension Service. The basic materials needed are containers, soil and seed. Plastic or clay pots, or plastic palls, wire baskets or a wijoden box will be adequate containers for the beginner.

Six-Inch iK)ts will suffice for vegetables such as chives and lO-lnch jwts are Ixjst for onions, radishes and miniature varieties ot tomatoes. Powell suggests that If solid plastic containers are used, be sure to allow for drainage. Drill ftwr or more Ixich holes, spaced evenly along the sides, near the l)ottom. Put about of coarse gravel In the of each container to aid drainage. Gardeners can either buy a syTithetlc soli or prepare their own.

Syntlietlc soil is free of plant disease organisms and weed seed, holds moisture and plant nutrients well, and Is IIglitweight and portable.
