How to plant veggies or plants (in houseplant pots)

How to plant veggies or plants (in houseplant pots)
  Here is a great thing for free-spirited kids (like me) who enjoy getting a little dirty,  but aren't allowed by their parents to dig a hole in the backyard. This is also for people who live in surburan areas and hate it when squirrels/birds/hoboes eat their veggies.

Step 1Tools/Materials

Tools/Materials
 You will need:
  
 1 pot (The size depends on how big your plant is going to be)
 *get one with at least a few holes in the bottom!! 

 1 seed or already grown plant
 *already germinated or sprouted plants cost more than seeds
 
 1 trowel

 1 watering can or spray bottle
 *if you use a watering can for seeds/seedlings you might wash them 
 away, this is why I use a spray bottle on medium "power"

 *1 bag of fertilized soil
 *you can use unfertilized soil if you are planting veggies too

 *all items with a star means that you might not need this

* 1 rock
 *ONLY if the holes at the bottom of your pot are too big and soil
 is leaking through them

* a brush and pollen
 *this is for people who have vegetables (or flowers) and the plants aren't being pollinated
(because they are on the lanai,patio or screened in porch) and they want them to. See last step
