    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.

    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 TH-cam page. We’ll be gardening together ❤️

      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
    @Thingys-Jill 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    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!

    I have a 4.5'x8' "deck' on my apartment. I started out planting large leaf house plants and moving them to the deck becasue is would reduce the temperature. My dog loved lying out there and doesn't have much tolerance for heat from direct sunlight. The shade and cooler temp provided by the plants were just what he needed. He is 80 lbs with lots of fur. Next year I expanded out feeling my chili head roots by building a shelf and planting super hot peppers in grow bags. This year my home bound neighbor wants me to use her deck and the property managers said I can plant along the building and on a sloped hill side by my building where I will plant squashes, tomatoes, Brussell sprouts and others. I tried planting squash in grow bags on my deck but my dog ate them. The GreenStalk Garden looks like an interesting system becasue for me watering can be challenging. Keep up the great videos.

    I've bought the 5 tier and the 7 tier, and using up here in Canada, and loving growing things vertically. The 7 tier is being used to grow strawberries and herbs, and the 5 tier for all sorts of lettuces, boy choy, pak choy, swiss chard, spinach, radishes, and peppermint on the bottom to keep the raccoons away. Next year maybe a couple more!

    The Greenstalk garden does look to be fully thought out. My husband bought me a similar set from the dollar store. In looking at it I did notice I would probably have to water each tier. However I will now keep in mind sun loving plants towards the top. Thanks.

    i started watching your channel about 5 months ago, which caused me to start looking at so many ways of producing my own stuff, we only have a small area of 1,5 meters by 1,5 meters in the back of the house right next to a street that we have repurposed to be a garden, we produced so many things this year and plan on doing more but we can only fit so much. Honestly this system would be amazing to have, its quite cheap right now but not something we can afford currently, Greek economy is kind of wonky right now. Thank you so much for this giveaway and Good luck to everyone!

    Last summer was my first year with a garden (townhouse with a west facing patio) and the first thing I bought after we signed the lease was a 5 tier greenstalk! It ended up shipping before we'd even moved in... whoops! I had it planted before we completely unpacked too. I ended up getting myself a second when just one wouldn't contain my winter garden plans. Love them so much, the caster base is a must have too.

    On gardeners world one day I saw a guy who built some kind of structure with multiple shelves (like a bookshelf) to grow strawberries. It took up no space as it was next to the wall and the strawberries hung down so the fruit wouldn't rot in the soil. Just a cool idea I found. 😁

    I haven't done much vertical gardening, but after seeing what's possible I got 5 tiers from the dollar tree to see if it's worth the investment. This is my first year and it's filling in nicely. Highly recommend the towers.

  • @Roseles89
    @Roseles89 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I don't have one of these because of the price. But I can confirm the cheaper systems don't work as well. Way more work than just watering from the top and the water spreading to where it needs to go. This is a wonderful set up so I do hope to get some in the future after we move in a couple months.

    holy crap, kev!! i got my seed trays in a week or so ago and planted some flowers. they dont even have their first true leaves yet and the roots are already filling out the cell!!!! these are amazing i could have never imagined the slits and just the design of a seed tray in general could make such a big diff. to say its worth the price is a severe understatement. in fact, i’d go so far to say these are cheaply priced for the build quality and effectiveness in the garden. life changer lmao 👌🔥

    I got a 5 tier for Christmas and I've succession planted bush beans. The first planting is setting tiny little beans, I'm so excited! For various reasons bush beans have never worked for me at this property so I'm really hopeful of getting a good crop. I will still be growing yard long beans since they love our summer heat here in Texas. I did try to grow some winter crops in the greenstalk but "the Big Freeze" killed everything. I had one each of spinach and kale come up after the freeze and grow beautifully, just harvested as the heat is starting to set in now.
