Dollar Tree Stackable Planters | Vertical Strawberry Tower on a Budget

I'm starting a new video series called The 400 Square Foot Garden. I'm going to teach you how to grow food from May thru Fall with a crop plan for succession plantings to take all of the guesswork out of growing. I'm hoping to inspire as many as possible to create a small sustainable garden using only a small 20x20 foot area in their backyard!

    I can't believe I found this video. I've been brainstorming for a couple of days and had come up with this exact idea on my own except I bought a PVC pipe to run down the middle and drill holes in for water. Was just looking for other people's ideas. Great minds!

    Great job in Duncanville Texas going to follow your lead. First year in long time, started a container up high garden, I’m old. Thanks

    Hello I bought some a couple of years ago (Facebook ad) believing they were those really good ones from the pictures, turned out not but rather like the ones you have no base no tower very disappointed as bought two and not that cheap. I’ve not used them hope they may be under the house. Can I ask though my strawberry plants get so big do you have enough space in those planters come year two? Thank you.

    Thank you for your videos. Does anyone know if these planters are actually food safe? I just picked up a bunch but am concerned there is no marking as to type of plastic, just that it was made in China. I bought them anyhow because I know it's kind of a miracle to find them, but are they actually safe? Thank you!

    I place a container (paper cup or small pot) in the middle instead of the pole so that I won't have to use too much potting mix. I'm thinking how to hack that middle portion so that it's possible to water from the top and let the water disperse. Thoughts?

    AWESOME! I saw those at dollar tree but wasnt sure if they would be sturdy enough!

    Nice video but wish I knew what part of the country you live in. This would probably not work in Arizona

    Thanks for the advice. 🙏 Especially about punching only one hole. I'm always trying to stay ahead of the Summer heat. I think that I'm going to add mulch to the middle n make a smaller hole. This is my first year using these.
