If the unit is purported to water each level roughly the same amount, I was wondering if that comment was correct.

Greenstalk is an outstanding product. I purchased my first in March after watching your videos. I use the extensions to grow & support my Zuchini and sugar snaps bush and pole beans. I have cantaloup, onions, carrots, radishes, Quinoa, Zatar, numerous herbs and flowers. The hummingbirds in my yard drink out of the top water container. I now have 2 orginal [deep ones] and 1 -5 tier leaf. They rest on the concrete pad outside the back of my apartment. in the back of your yard area, is now converted to mostly grow bags for my other crops. Thank you. Kevin for your books and all information on growing. I have been growing my own food for over 40 years, {every where I have lived}. The desert in Palm Springs ,CA and the arctic desert in Faribanks, AK have been the hardest two of ten states I have grown food.

If you are extra lazy, you can put crops that grow in full shade on the north side. Things like leafy greens or radishes can do just fine without direct sunlight.

I'm so excited to get started.

@Herbalistmoonchild 3 года назад

Last year, my fiancé and I started a garden. Went WAY over our heads with how much space everything needed so we had to add on this year. But last year was such a big struggle for us. So many bugs that we never saw on our property before that destroyed our squash and zucchini. Or the worms that ate the cabbage. And don’t get me started on the poor tomatoes! We’ve made a lot of progress so far this year and hoping to continue with that. We ran out of room for some of our plants so we’re planting things in random spots just so they live right now, but that’s what you get when the excitement for more plants takes over 😂 we are just very glad that we found your RU-vid page. We’ll be gardening together ❤️

@WinsomeWinslet 3 года назад

Plant petunias at the base of all your squash, zucchini and cucumber plants to deter those little monster bugs. It works like a charm. Also, a bottle of BT saved all our cabbages this year. Just spray at night and after heavy rains and you'll be so happy you did. :)

@Thingys-Jill 3 года назад

I'm here in Beaumont, CA and I have the Green Leaf 5 tier, but added 1 Original Tray at the bottom. This year I have herbs, a leek, flowers, and 18 dwarf heirloom tomatoes - 6 of 3 different varieties: Bendigo Rose, Clare Valley, and Banana Toes. Because it is so very windy here, I put a garden stake down the middle hole and bungee corded it to my covered patio. It is extremely well built and I urge anyone who buys one to also get the Greenstalk Mover, which is the wheeled base. My biggest issue is that it was drying out so much that I was having to water several times each day. I suspect my soil has too much peat moss in it. So, to circumvent the issue, I've connected drip irrigation and now it is too wet! The drip irrigation is fixable though! People in other zones will probably not have the 9B heat and wind that is experienced here. I do recommend this vertical system over others (I didn't want the vermi-compost one). I edited this to add -- 25 years of gardening is just a great start! I'm gardening for twice that long!
