    Yes, I have 7 pots myself and they are more productive per square foot than the main garden. However, I was referring to saying that your neighter has "pot plants" instead of "potted plants"

    It should stay fresh a while.

    Speaking as the fridge guy here 34° is ideal for keeping veggies fresh. The crisper drawer in your fridge also holds more humidity than the rest of the fridge and that helps as well.
