Full Review of Vego Garden's Self Watering Wicking Cell System for Raised Beds
Hello gardeners! Welcome to the channel!

Köszönöm a megtekintést!
Those wicking cells will keep the excess water from draining out the bottom and watering all of the weeds around the perimeter of my Vego raised beds! At $130, Vego is sure proud of them. That's pretty pricey for the average gardener, IMO. FOR ME, gardening is a way to save expenses. Vego has created a way to spend those savings. I'm glad it's working for you, Jenn. I'm retired, so our income levels are diametrically opposed, I think. Thanks for the video, Jenn!!

I totally agree they are expensive .. I always wait for sales before I buy anything from them but even then it’s still pricey. My ROI on my garden is pretty negative right now, lol!

@@SpaceCoastHarvest But at least you're having fun! It's raining like crazy here in Kansas. I haven't watered in over a week and I still have tiny fungi sprouting every morning. Those wicking cells may have a negative impact during your rainy season. It will be interesting to find out. One of the big advantages Vego had in a video was that their open bottomed raised beds have great drainage. If you have to remove the W.C.....that will make an interesting video!!🤣

I’m a little worried about the rainy season too haha. It rains HARD here in the hot summer months for about an hour everyday. I hope the plants don’t drown 😂 that would be awful if I had to remove those things!!

@@SpaceCoastHarvest EXACTLY! Tell Vego to dig them out!!
That’s really great that you’re able to gauge the benefits..that moisture meter was a good idea! I wonder if they’ll be too wet during the rainy season?

@@SpaceCoastHarvest worries me, too. I've just purchased the rolling self watering planters and I don't really see a way for them to drain. If we get lots of rain, they may retain too much moisture. Let me know what you find out. I'll subscribe to your channel.
Thanx! I was curious how those were working out since you moved that bed.
