Hi Alan, how much potting soil did you put in each level. Please guide.
I love that it only takes up 2 square feet and reduces weeding, what I don't like is you still have to water all pockets weekly, the drip does not work and you will loose your crops if you only count on the top watering. I lost a full years crops counting on a few of these instead of planting in the garden, also, the soil heats up bad and needs to have partial shade or plant growth will be stunted unless you fully water each pocket daily or twice daily to cool it off, I have two years experiences with the Greenstalk and the only reason I have some success this year is because I water all pockets every couple of days. TOP WATERING is not good enough. I am in the mid/east west where it shouldn't be such a problem, the drip is only good for a quick bit of water if you are running out the door but make sure that you go back and completely water every single pocket with in a few hours or you will have dead plants. These are way too expensive to not work as advertised, I'm disappointed and embarrassed because many friends, family and neighbors made fun of me when I bought these… and they where right to make fun of me spending that much money on this system.. it would have been better to invest in a raised bed system.
the wife would like this for flowers as well
Alan I have some new shoots of blackberries or I think it's blackberries but they have 5 leaves on them is that blackberries
i hope that in a few months you give an update to see if this product lives up to its expectations. I like the concept but I am very skeptical that it will be successful due to drying out to quickly. Thanks for the video!
Hey! Just sent you an email under the subject
line ‘Optica Entertainment & Creative Nation Inquiry’ if that helps you find it. Hoping to hear back from you! 🙂
do you think worms would survive in it to help?
I would be very interested to see/hear your results later in the year to see how this system produces for you.
little pricey for a tightwad like me, but a good idea
What about fire ants climbing up into the tower and making a 5 foot tall fire ant bed, after all we are in Texas. ?
Keep us updated. Interested on how it works out.
Corn? well maybe. But admittedly it is limited. I wouldn't try squash, and tomatoes may be a problem. Green beans? maybe.
It is probably best suited for herbs and maybe leaf style lettuce.
It looks good for people with plenty of sun but no yard and yes you'd need a way to rotate it for even solar exposure. Also for people who have problems growing strawberries 😉
Good review video, TP2. An interesting product for vertical container gardening. Could be just the right answer for someone with limited space. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for showing this! I saw these at the store the other day but I was kind of skeptical about how well they would work out. Looks like I'll be heading back to the store.
Thats the second one of these ive seen on channels that i watch.Looks like a good idea for an older person who cant get out to the garden.
A hand truck might move it around nicely too. Thanks.
Cool
We got our strawberries in the ground about a week ago. Crossing our fingers this time they do better than 2 years ago! I dropped your name on my order form. Wife wants to grow some stuff on the back porch and HATES the bending over part (and weeding) of gardening. 🙂 Congrats on the 10 million views also!!
Looks like a nice system. Hope it continues to do well for you.
i got a question can u do a lambing video
