    You didn't indicate a time frame for how long it took from planting to harvest. And what herbs need to be towards the top cause they like dryer soil? I assume the top layer would dry out faster but idk I'm just now getting into gardening at 40 lol Thanks!

    • @diybythepond
      @diybythepond 2 месяца назад

      Harvest time will vary with each plant and your particular garden zone. If you plant from seed, your seed packets will usually indicate expected harvest time. Transplanted herbs purchased as plants from a garden center are harvest ready or close to harvest ready. The planter cells for the stackable planters are small, and they generally dry out quickly. I suggest watering all the cells daily and twice daily if you're in a hot climate. Plants which like direct sunlight can go higher up on your stackable. Happy gardening!

      Greens have done well. They have a shallow root system, which works for these stackables. You may have to rotate your stackables around if all sides don't get at least a couple hours daily of sunlight. I plan to do a video soon about growing lettuce in the stackables.

    I would use two nested pots for the bottommost level, considering how prone they are to shatter. Maybe with a few big dollops of expanding foam between the two as well. Otherwise, I think I like this rebar & PVC idea. I am still planning to use a tetherball-like pole for myself, however.

      The tag that comes on the stackable planters did not mention uv resistant. I have had stackable planters for a few seasons in Texas where they do get a lot of sun exposure. Mine have become more brittle over time and a couple have small cracks near the top edge of the rim this season. They have not broken apart for me, but I may do a short video in the future to discuss how the sun has affected my stackables over the years. Thanks for the comment.

    I was thinking of planting "Hens and Chicks" in 3 stacked together. Another video I watched used plastic bottles, like soda or water bottles, to water the plants in each section. She cut off the bottoms, left the caps on, put holes in the cap and around the bottle about 3" up, put it , cap side down, in the center of the pot, by the rod. Making them easier to put water in.

    Great info. I saw another video where this woman suggested just punching out one of the holes in the bottom to prevent the water from draining out too quickly. Since I also live in Texas - with the super hot summers - so this made sense to me. I have some of them both ways - some with three drainage holes and some with just one. I'll find out this summer which one performs better. Since I've got strawberries in both stacks, it should be a good experiment.

( strawberries you get from the store scrape off the seeds and put them on a wet paper towel in a ziplock bag. When they sprout, plant them), My biggest problem was watering. I had to water twice a day and when the soil got dry, the water would run out and not soak in to the soil. But I did get several "free" strawberry plants.
