I have heard of this special box that is very easy to use and requires low maintenence that allows you to grow amazing vegetables and plants – but I don’t recall the name or where to buy it? Any ideas?
Thanks!!

I am in an apartment now with a back yard, sunlight, water, etc, etc, but I can’t grow in the ground because my neighbor thinks he owns the universe and doesn’t want anything in the ground but GRASS.

I may go back to Ikea and get a few more pots but I have 4 to start with and I was thinking they were big enough for Tomatoes but I’m not sure how much room Raspberries need.

Would raspberries be able to grow in pots or should I go for something “Dwarf” like a dwarf blueberry?

I’m in ‘Zone 5′, Chicago, IL

Thanks for ANY advice you can provide… I’m a noob at growing anything because I grew up in AZ, where I only got Aloe to grow, and then lived downtown Chicago where my patio was basically a Wind Tunnel, destroying anything I tried to plant.

OH! And I have a HUGE bag of poppy seeds from a local Small Grocery that are said to grow in to beautiful flowers… I’m going to spread them all around my neighborhood. Do you think they will grow?

I have 17 horses that I ride each and every day,have won 32 saddles and I need to know if I should keep my big water troughs or get those new self replenishing water troughs.Help me as truthfully as you can!

I just bought one , to make sure my 2 kitties are never out of water. It seems great. But are there any negatives? If so, ill just go back to the regular water bowl i have and filling it 3 times a day like i have been. Thanks everyone!!!!!

I just got a 60 cell seed kit with dome. I’m wondering if i’ll have a problem planting different types of seeds in it? A blog I read said that You should only type one type in all cells. Please tell me if that’s a problem? Now I’m thinking the kit might be a mistake, because I’m trying to start tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants.

I have two tomato plants growing on my sunny windowsill. They’re in the peak of fruiting thanks to it being so hot and sunny. They’re very happy with their daily watering (sometimes twice if it’s been really hot). My problem lies in that we’re going away for 4 days over the weekend and have no one to come in and water. The rest of the plants (herbs) will probably be okay. They don’t seem to need water as much as the tomatoes. What can I do to keep my babies alive while I’m gone? Am I SOL? Have any of you had any luck with leaving the pots in a big bowl of water or rigging up some automatic watering system?

Moving them into a less sunny location is out of the question. They’re about five feet high and totally dependent on the curtain rod they’re attached to…
I mean tomatoes. The fruit. You know, they’re round and red and you put them in salads…

I watered them well and then did the pop bottle – which didn’t empty out – do you really need those self-watering spikes or as the dirt dries will it allow water out of the bottle and keep the container moist enough for the long weekend ?

Have you ever used the pots made for African Violets where you keep the water in the bottom saucer? I’ve never used these and just wonder if they really work. Thanks.

I remember doing a project where I grew radish inside of a bottle with some dirt and some water and lid sealed. I know there is a professional system for it and I think its called a tararieum or something like that but I’m not quite sure.

Does anyone know the name for it? It waters itself using condensation and is completely sealed.
