Abstract: The food packaging is utilized for pressure cooking of food in a microwave with a pressure relief valve being attached to a top wall of the packaging with the relief valve also providing an access opening into the packaging for addition of liquids and other ingredients prior to cooking.

Abstract: Food packaging includes a top wall of film plastic material which in turn includes top and bottom wall portions creating a pocket therebetween. The pocket bottom wall portion has feed openings communicating with the food chamber. The top wall portion includes a centrally disposed feed opening registering with a vent opening in the bottom wall portion with the bottom wall feed openings being remotely located and adapted to be sealed during cooking by pressure within the food chamber pressing the bottom wall portion against the top wall portion.

Abstract: A growing system includes an outer pot of net material and an inner pot holding water and nutrients fed through a tube extending to the top of the outer pot. Peat growing medium is provided in both pots including the space between the inner and outer pots. An outer watering saucer may be provided for plant growth in a first warm climate while a stabilizing pot may be used in a second climate for securing the outer pot to a substrate of ground soil. The plant roots grow into both the inner and outer pots and through the bottom wall of the outer pot into the ground soil. Additional plants may be positioned to grow through the side openings in the outer pot. The heat growing medium may be dehydrated to 15% of its normal moisture for transport between the first climate to a second climate with hydration occurring at the second climate.

Abstract: An organic growing medium for plants or seeds placed in standing water having substantially all the major and minor fertilizer elements is exposed to humid air over its substantial outer side surface thereby making air available to plant roots. The growing medium may be in a pot having porous sidewalls which allows air to be admitted into the pot or air openings may be formed in the pot sidewalls. The pot may further sit in a container wherein an air passageway is formed between the container and the pot to provide humid air around the growing medium. Alternately, the growing medium may be spaced from the container wall having air openings and an air chamber is formed between the growing medium and the container wall.

Alternatively, the growing medium may be spaced from the container wall having air openings and an air chamber is formed between the growing medium and the container wall. A plant or seed may be placed in a growing medium centrally located of alternate air chambers and growing mediums formed by pairs of spaced apart walls having air openings therein allowing air to communicate to the growing medium and to allow the plant roots to grow from one growing medium into an air chamber and thence into the next growing medium.
