Earthbox Planters - a Great Alternative when Traditional Gardening Isn't an Option

Earthbox plantersI am excitedly awaiting spring so I can get my garden planted.  While I have a huge in-ground garden each year, there are certain crops that I have trouble growing.  We have squash bugs so bad, that I absolutely can not grow anything from the squash family.  I get so jealous when I hear of people who grow so much zucchini that they can't even give it all away.  Fortunately for me Earthbox planters have been a wonderful solution.  Earthbox even has come out with an organic garden kit, which is nice for all of us organic gardening fanatics.

I currently have 2 Earthboxes up on my deck that get full sunlight most of the day.  Last year was the first year I finally had enough zucchini to be able to freeze the extra.  After discovering how well Earthbox gardening works for my situation, I definitely won't be growing any squash in the ground ever again.  It's much easier this way!  You can read more of my experiences by checking out Earthbox system.

Here is a great video that shows you how quick and easy it is to set up Earthbox planters.



Features of Earthbox Planters
  • Earthboxes are self-watering.  I had to fill the water reservoir about once a day in the heat of summer, but I could go 2-4 days without watering when it was cooler or the plants were smaller.
  • Earthboxes are weed-free.  They come with a plastic cover and you cut holes in it for the plants.  It's so nice to not to have to deal with weeks like I do in my regular garden.
  • Earthbox planters come with all the fertilizers you need for the entire growing season.
  • Earthboxes are on wheels which makes them so easy to move.

I was sceptical when my brother told me how great this is for growing vegetables. He was right!

Marnita stated
They are easy to use and maintain. I also never felt bad about leaving for a couple of days in the heat of summer with a reservoir of water full before we left.

Margaret C. stated
The Earthbox works miracles. My tomatoes and peppers are 3 times the size of the ones planted in the ground.
