Hey it took 5 stores but that better than spending way more money what a steal!!! lol. Great job. They look amazing. I love to see color and green plants 🌱
To your point of falling in windy areas...I purchased several of these as well (I was lucky enough to have my Dollar Tree store have them stocked them in a cape cod blue, which I snapped up!).Sadly, the Dollar Tree higher stacks have gone down on a few gardeners and even broken on them. So while they are great little helpers, I would recommend taking care when stacking unless you can stake or stabilize them against something sturdy when going higher than 3 or 4. Great content on container gardens!
I just got me some of these dollar tree stackables and was wondering what the heck to put in the centers so as not to waste soil. Thanks for your idea/s.
@@kavitac1436 I have not found them, again. They don't seem to have them in stock at all. They carry a limited amount, and when I tried to order the cases, it came back with unavailable. My suggestion is to keep checking the website at least monthly, until you can order them.
If you cant find them you can order them from the dollar tree pack of 36. But if you dont need 36 have them sent to the store and then buy what you need.
These are great, and you can plant many things in it...however the ones that are more expensive have other features. They are larger so you can grow things that require a little more room. They are also a little sturdier. They may require a bit less watering perhaps because they have a little more soil. But the DT ones are great for other reasons....they take up less space, require less soil, and like you said, they are way way less expensive.
Thank you for sharing. I just found mines in a store called Rose's. It was a 1.50 each. So I brought the rest on the shelf. I got 7. I am so excite because I can't find them in dollar tree.
Now, can you share how it worked throughout the season? My concern was that the sun would cook the roots, and it would be a job just keeping the soil from drying out.
If i remember correctly someone gave them to me that said it was for trash cans... I have to go back an look hahaha... sorry had some 911s and been so busy with work....
Hi, thanks for the video!! just wondering how these towers held up? I find dollar store pots crack after a season. I hope that wasn't your experience!!
Yes I did on some... you can also take the plates like things off to and there are spots to push the drainage holes... I love mine growing herbs... thanks for stopping by....
Just an FYI (if you didn't know)... if you're local Dollar Tree doesn't have something you're looking for (or the quantity you want) you can order from their website. I organize the children's crafts area at a festival (19 years!), and that has come in handy for getting supplies!
Nancy Ortiz, I nust bought 5 of these. My husband drilled a hole in each section to allow water to drain. This is a "must" otherwise your plants will drown. He also drilled larger hole in the middle because I am going to insert a stake through it and into the ground to stabilize it. Before I place any dirt in them, I am going to Hot Glue them together...also to stabilize them. Otherwise, a strong wind or a cat bumping against it, will easily make it fall over.
Yes it does. If there is an x on the bottom, you poke it with a screwdriver and it pops out. I've seen other versions where each has a drainage part that pops off.
Truth some herbs and some veggies and some fruit.... to me strawberries NO! cause when the shoot of the runners no where to go.... and they got root bound.... Spinach its awesome with... Basil and lemon balm stuff like that awesome.. I had trouble with beans... its great with a few green onions... marigolds NO... mini marigolds i am trying now... not all flowers are good for it
@@OrganicRawRootsFarm Thank you for your reply it will definitely help me. And one last question that I have, What do you think about the dollar tree planter plastic? is it safe for vegetables?
@@Minal50 See if the bottom of the plastic has a #5 on it. If it does you can use it for food. There are other numbers that are good but I forgot which. Look that up. Many plastic bins have a #5.
@@isithotmama we used a drill in some before and after... an like i said in another reply.. i am glad some dont have extra drain holes cause we are gone for days at a time with work and the flowers and herbs stay watered longer.. it does leak out to the the planter under it
@@isithotmama In another video that I watched using these stackable planters, there are 3 "buttons" inside each section of the pots. The lady in the video just pressed down on them and the water catching plate fell right off and left 6 drain holes.
@@OrganicRawRootsFarm oh so sorry for your loss, hope you are feeling better now Rowan is a name of a character in throne of glass book series ( a handsom one lol) totally recommend if you are into books
@@MsThedark12 OH Rollin the cat!!!! haha oh he is a block cat! we moved where he was at.. My friend took him up north to his farm... I see now... how are you???? thanks for stopping in.. I am excited for new friends.
I'm worried that this container is not food grade. I've been researching this issue because I was considering using the containers myself. A recycling number in the bottom of the pot would tell you what kind of plastic it is made of - 1,2, 4, 5, and 7 are considered food grade. The pots at Dollar Tree have no number, so they probably not food grade, and probably have toxic chemicals that would leach into the soil and be taken up by the plants. Sorry, I usually try to refrain from making negative comments on people's videos, but in this case, I'm concerned about health and safety.
Truth is better to say.... I thank you for being truth.... You are rude either about it like some would be,,, Thanks for reaching out I do understand what your saying... But are all potting pots food grade???? hummmmmm something ill look at to.... thank you for stopping by sorry I took a step back and took a much needed break and i hard to work alot
I am thinking to get that sort of planter for my strawberry plants. I think it would be awesome. I have got so many strawberry plants from last year and I think vertical gardening will be a good idea to save on space. Please visit my channel as I am going to post my video today.
Romeo and my dog might be cousins...lol. He's from a shelter, so I never knew his breed for sure. Anyway, I love this stackable planter idea. Wow!
Thank you... I am so glad you have a mini pin... Check out my hanging stackable. More ways to save space.. thank you so much
Hey it took 5 stores but that better than spending way more money what a steal!!! lol. Great job. They look amazing. I love to see color and green plants 🌱

@@OrganicRawRootsFarm how have they held up?
@@holly74834 Actually awesome.... Lets see how this summer does them I just made a short on the I think its like the 4th or 5th latest video..
Drill a hole in the middle and run a pvc pipe threw it for extra stability. You can also drill small holes in the pvc pipe so it waters the plants.
Thank you
Woo. Keep in touch, super like. Always full supported, best wishes for you. Thank you !!!!
Thank you so much
Great video!!!!!
Thanks girlie..
This was very nice. I wish I could check out the dollar tree right now to see if they have them. I love the ideas you gave to stack them. ❤️

Hi, thanks for the video!! just wondering how these towers held up? I find dollar store pots crack after a season. I hope that wasn't your experience!!
My are growing strong and in full sun.... I will do a video this weekend to show you how they are its been a year....
@@OrganicRawRootsFarm Good to know! Thanks for responding! I look forward to the update!!
Those Planters usually have an area to push the holes in the bottom. Did you push in holes?
Yes I did on some... you can also take the plates like things off to and there are spots to push the drainage holes... I love mine growing herbs... thanks for stopping by....
What potting mix for lavender?
I just use our everyday mix.. With pete moss, eggshells sand and other things... They don't like their feet wet make sure you have great drainage.
Ok I want some too now dangit 🙄😩
I am going tomorrow to the dollar store for a friend I'll check for you to

Awesome tip.... Right now this is my herb station... and bless you for doing children crafts events thats awesome
New to planting, got these at dollar store, where does the water drain into? Do I need to place a mat or drain plate underneath?
Thank you for stopping by welcome..... I can answer any questions you might have.... Grow what you love to eat... I have new videos going up this week

I bought those and I'm ready to use them but doesn't it have to have holes for drainage and each one of those layers please let me know thank you

Yes you have to pop them open
dollar tree planters are good for vegetables?

Update it has...
Step #1 - and the most important step - open your drain holes!
