It was a nice day so i though i would plant a few tomatoes plants.The lot next door had a house tore down and removed and they dumped load of sand there ,so i dig down not quite a foot to get down to good black dirt.I have found about 150 bottles here,but today i wasn't going to dig,The third hole i found this bottle.

That whole yard might be a dump. The larger green bottles you have are common wines.Don't dig to many test holes your wife will kill ya. Unless you have a LOT of tomatoes to plant [:D]

Be careful what your planting. If it's an old dump your tomatoes may be growing in a heavy amounts of toxic metal wastes and other stuff dumped there all those years ago and waiting to suck them up and be eaten.
