The truth behind the little tags on fruits & vegetables sold at grocery stores and why you should grow your own.

The 4 and 5 digit codes on fruits and vegetables in stores are called

“PLU codes” (Price Look-up codes) and they primarily serve to identify the specific type of produce, its size, and most importantly, whether it was grown conventionally (4-digit code) or organically (5-digit code starting with a ‘9’).

4-digit codes: These are for conventionally grown produce with chemicals (4011 for a regular banana, 4012 for a conventional carrot).
5-digit codes starting with “9”: These represent organic produce (94011 for an organic banana, 94012 for an organic carrot).
5-digit codes starting with “8”: These are for genetically modified (GMO) produce. An example could be 84011 for a GMO banana.
Remember, conventionally grown produce uses 4 digits, organic uses 5 digits starting with “9” and GMO produce is typically marked with a 5-digit code starting with “8.”
Remember to wash your hands when handling these types of fruits & vegetables so it will not absorb into your skin.

EZ Trellis System

EZ Trellis maximizes cucumber, pea, and bean growth, saving 95% space, reducing mold and fungus, and ensuring higher yields efficiently.

Plant Support System

All plants need support in order to produce the most fruits and vegetables they can! When using the EZ Step-In Post, put the Stabilizer (or foot platform) facing the plant to receive the maximum growth. As the plant grows, it is producing heavy fruits that pull the plant downward.

First, plant your tomato, pepper, raspberry, or any type of plant that needs proper support.

Then, install the EZ Step-In Post in order to not disrupt the strength of the root system. When you give it the support it needs, the plant redirects the energy into growth and production versus having to try and keep itself upright!

Plant support systems also help eliminate mold and fungus.
