Matt Lehman, the Kansas college student who is growing vegetables in his dorm room, has posted an update on his blog, Dorm Room Garden.

I wrote about Matt in my garden column in The Sun, describing how he had been inspired by a book on square-foot gardening.

When he returned to college in the fall, he brought with him a garden in a 3-foot-by-1-foot wooden box and planted it with cukes, beans and tomatoes.

So far, he's had cherry tomatoes to eat -- and three beans. But he pretty much drowned his cucumber plant.

Check out Matt's update.
