Within the lining is a grid of cells. In each of the 72
cells (4x4 garden) one or more plant grows. The cells
benefit plant growth in one general way. The cells create
an environment such that growing a single plant in a cell is
like growing the plant in its very own field. The cell walls
divide the plants so that each plant may have its own unique
environment. This also makes it very easy to transplant plants
out of and into the Abundant Harvest Garden. The cell's oblong
shape aslo prevent plant roots from strangling themselves.
Immediately below the cells is a layer of semi-permeable fabric.
This fabric gives the soil and roots more time to absorb water
that otherwise would have ran straight through the soil. With
the semi-permeable fabric innovation and water spouts out
the side for any water that gets past the fabric the Abundant
Harvest Garden uses up to 70% less water.
