First time gardening. So you get this and put Garden Soil in it and plant vegetable seeds and they will grow? Thank you so much for you time!

When it comes in you will need to put it together. Easy enough by just sliding pieces into place. Then you can add your soil and seeds as you wish. This is a very simple way to start gardening. Good Luck!

Yes! works beautifully for me, I can take a picture and post it once i get home. And its portable, i can move it when needed for various sun times and seasons. Really like it.

That's what we did, it was our first time too. (& Our soybeans & cucumbers are growing!) Pay attn to where you place your box if you know what you want to grow check the amount of sun and shade those plants require. Some veggies need full sun, some partial sun and some can be ok in shade. The box itself is simple and super easy to assemble. We were very quickly pouring soil and planting our seeds. Have fun!

I used it for potatoes and I bought potting soil to fill it. I filled it a little bit over the potatoes and watered it to keep it moist if it didn't rain. When I got shoots, i put more dirt in to cover it up. I treat it like any other pot I use to put plants in. Place it in sun according to the plant's needs. water will sift through so it won't be floded with water. I turn it around now and then so all sides get sunlight. I am sure it didn't come with directions just like any other plant pot doesn't come with directions. Put a plant in with some dirt, add sunshine and water and watch it grow.

I am just in the process of having it built. No tubs. The loam and dirt go in the garden bed. Reading the directions it suggests purchasing wire that is known as "Gopher Wire" to put on the bottom before you put in the loam and top soil. One of the things I read was it requires so much top soil that you can save a bunch of money putting loam on the bottom. I ended up with chicken fencing. plastic with small holes to hopefully keep out critters coming up from under the ground to eat the veggies and herbs.

I filled mine about half full of soil dug from our garden then topped it off with bagged potting soil. You can use all potting soil but that may be rather costly as the planter does take a large amount of soil. I filled mine to the bottom of the top rim.

Yes. The pot it comes in is small. You would need to put it in a bigger pot or in the ground right away. I planted mine, it's doing fine.

Just plant then about 1 1/2 inches beneath the soil, vertically, water and your good to go. Mine are all up and flowering. I've found that vertical placement lets Mother Nature the pattern for growth.

It's recommended that you cultivate the soil first, then spread thinly by hand (no need to use a spreader). No top soil or fertilizer either. It will deaden the germination process.

I spread my seeds outside in a flower bed with average/slightly improved soil but nothing special, gave them water, took maybe 8-11 days and they sprouted like crazy. They can take the cold but I plan to keep a patch going year round. Where my bed sits, they get about 4+ hrs of sun in the morning. If you don't have a garden or a bed, you could use a planter. I have used that method too and it worked fine.

I would till, fertilize, and plant then right after apply the nematodes. Being that you have to pour water over the newly planted seeds to rid the ground of air pockets, its a good opportunity to start the nematodes at the same time. They started to work the very next day after i applied. Two days later, the gnats were completely gone and they havent come back. What you can also do is get some "gnat stix" to help get rid of or ward off gnats that are adults.

I wanted to add this: it is at depence on the amount of soil or water in your pots, or on where you carry these pots to and how but I just know 100%-guaranteed that if you pour a lot of water into these pots and then try to carry them/it after you will see water dripping down on the floor in your room, yes it does! okay, I am sorry I couldn't be any more helpful to you?, thank you and good luck with your growing project!, thanks.

No, this is intended for starting seeds. The seedlings should be transplanted to your vegetable garden bed. If you are container gardening, transplant to large containers with potting soil.

I'm sorry I can't answer these questions b/c I have not yet used any of the seeds, in part b/c there were no basic instructions as to how to grow (how deep to plant, etc.) Try cutting it back, most of pants will grow back. Sorry.

I am new to gardening of any sort, but the advice an experienced gardener gave me for raising vegetables was: you can mix equal amounts of garden soil and composted matter that comes in a bag. I got the organic. You might also like to add a little fertilizer. I filled the Keter to the line between the woven base material and the solid band at the top. It did sink a little after a rain. So far our kale, onions and tomato plant seem to be thriving. Good luck. Hope your garden is everything you would like it to be.

I did not receive beans or peas either. Sorry, I don't know how the seed types are decided. So far though, every seed has sprouted. I created a second set now of other greens etc

I just put potting soil in them and they grew giant tomato plants for me. I can't say there's anything special about how to use them.

We raked the area then spread seeds by hand. Watering the area well that was it, no digging. Just check the expiration date of seeds! That is where we ran into a problem. Old seeds but they did grow.
