I highly recommend them! No weeding, no fertilizing- just water. And if you're handy like me, I devised a multi port fill from the garden hose to each box with an auto timer. So, I don't even have to water them anymore- I just reap the rewards. I cannot say enough about these boxes, I get WAY more veggies with these than in the regular garden. I am currently growing 3 types of tomatoes, cukes, 2 different types of zucchini, 5 different types of peppers and WATERMELON! This is my second year with 6 growboxes. I highly recommend them!

After back surgery, I can't grow a conventional garden anymore. The yield from my grow boxes far exceeds my conventional garden! All I need to do after planting each year is fill the reservoir once a day, twice a day during the hottest months for squash, cukes and tomatoes. No weeding, no fertilizing. What a pleasure.

I'm trying to get away from plastics as much as possible, especially when it comes to my food. Thanks! I love these – but do you know of any company that makes them out of something besides plastic?
