There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
While we do have above-ground garden beds, it was really fabulous to have these boxes to grow our pepper plants in since we were planting a few new items in our beds that needed lots of space.
These boxes, unlike my parents, came with wheels which in theory is really great but due to the shape and fluctuating heights of our backyard, made it challenging to put the boxes where we were initially planning. That is not the box's fault, but poor planning on our part.
The boxes were easy to assemble with very clear instructions as well as recommendations for planting, which we used. Overall, I would highly recommend these for people who want additional space or who have limited space and want to grow.
Some reviews mentioned castor-wheels falling off. It is not enough to just place the spokes of the castor-wheels into the holes. You have to turn the box upside-down and push the castors in firmly till they click into place - I have been lifting the boxes and moving them around and the castor-wheels have not fallen off.
In my hot and humid tropical isle, mosquitoes are a BIG issue. To prevent them breeding in the reservoir, I cut a piece of carbon filter from leftovers after replacing the filter in my cookerhood, and place it over the drainage hole ON THE INSIDE of the Earthbox, before putting in the screen. I flipped the box over and checked - the filter fits snugly over the hole. After filling the box with potting mix, and planting the seedlings, I filled the reservoir and checked that the water overflow was not impeded by the carbon filter. I also fashioned a cover for the watering tube to prevent the mosquitoes going into the reservoir that way.
Now I wait to see if my corn will grow - will update later.
UPDATE: Soaked corn kernels for about one day, and sow them directly into prepared EARTHBOX, put on the mulch cover as directed - 13 of the 16 seeds germinated in less than two days! wow! Now, after less than 4 days, the seedlings are already about 10 inches tall, and look really strong and healthy. The EARTHBOX reservoir is keeping the potting mix nice and moist. I am so happy with this that I have already ordered three more EARTBOXes, and planning what plants to grow in them! ^^
I have been sort of neglecting my plants this summer. Wrong summer to neglect plants, as we are in a severe drought with very high temperatures. I have watered but not nearly as much as I needed to for normal pots. The things I had in this planter are still just fine. I'm thinking about getting another for myself.

The planter is a great size and the castors allow easy movement. I bought a second one with the stand and it too is fabulous.
As I grow older (now 72), mobility is more and more of a concern and these boxes are great. I also like the self- watering aspect as that allows more regulated water supply for the plants.
All in all another great purchase.
