Or was that a Potato????

Scientists have produced a genetically engineered 'superpotato' that glows when it needs water. They injected potato plants with a fluorescence gene from a luminous jellyfish. The night-light nightshades are not intended for human consumption, but would signal to a farmer that the rest of his field should be watered.

(Wouldn't glow-in-the-dark french fries and green ketchup be a hit with the kids..??)

Now, all they need is a potato to turn on the irrigation pump in the middle of the night.

Radishes are overworked already. They are all red in the face from the exertion of keeping the onions in line.
