    I was scoffed at by relatives for my Greenstalks when I first bought them and now everyone wants them! 😂 I grow towers of herbs, Swiss chard, lettuce, flowers and yes, I’ve done tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, garlic and onions in them too! Now I have 11 so there’s not much more space to put more, but if you’ve had to deal with dirty leafy greens - Greenstalk is the savor!

    Hi Jill. My garden is fairly large, but not nearly the size of a homestead garden. It only needs to feed two, but I grow a lot of surplus that is given to friends, family, and neighbors-my contribution to the community. I have eight raised beds, a 10x12 foot polytunnel greenhouse, 34 fabric pots 10-30 gallon, and three GreenStalks. One of my towers is used exclusively for Seascape strawberries, one is used for peppers, one variety for each tier. The third is a recent purchase for next year's garden. I have a 4x8 raised bed planted with about 25 pepper plants. Judging by yield between the raised bed and GreenStalk tower, I get three times the yield from the tower. Both use the same soil, but the tower requires more frequent fertilization, but not a lot more.

    It took ke a while to get on board with Greenstalk, lets he honest here... Im cheap and couldn't swallow the idea of spending that money! Now i have a Leaf and an original! I absolutely LOVE them! My brother got one after i shared pictures of mine and then when i pitched an idea for a family gift for our mom my siblings were on board because it will be great for her with her bad back, because she likes to garden! They are great quality and so worth the cost!

    I have a bit of space for raised bed gardens, but I bought my first Greenstalk earlier this year. I wanted something where I could grow a ton of herbs on my porch, so that I had a ready supply for cooking. We also ordered a second Greenstalk during one of the recent sales, because the first one was so successful we decided to use the second as part of our fall garden plan. I'm so impressed with the Greenstalk's production and the customer service I've received from this company.

    • @WhisperingWillowFarm

      I hope you love them. Just remember to keep them watered. If the get direct sunlight for long periods of time, they tend to dry out faster

      Thank you for the tip! We live in Florida so we will def be watering lots. It was such a wonderful time putting together and filling the green stalks with my 9year old daughter…..she Turns 10 next month and we are planning a surprise tea party in the garden…the green stalks will make it that much more beautiful!

    Container gardening so easy. Long time grower. I do fabric pots too. Even DIY soil works. Compost is the most important thing you can add.

    Hi Jill. Love watching your channel and learning from you. What advice would you give? I have plenty of space that I am trying to grow in. We are doing a garden and I am doing a cut flower garden. We have been doing some for the past two growing seasons since moving here. Nebraska. So frustrated with all the weeds we are dealing with. Moving forward, what is the 1st thing I should do to be more successful? I would just love your advice. I really want to roll out my cut flowers in the spring.

    • @WhisperingWillowFarm
      @WhisperingWillowFarm  Рік тому +1

      Weed management is crucial especially if you’re wanting to expand your growing area. I would recommend getting a silage tarp to control your grass and weeds. They are a game changer for us. If you’re wanting to talk strategy, I have helped so many with business plans and functional layouts to help maximize their space. If you’re wanting to get serious, click on the link below and I would be glad to help you.

    How many bags of soil does it take to fill the 7 tiers? When you plant rutabagas in them, how many per pocket can you plant and harvest? Thank you. ❤

    • @jaytoney3007
      @jaytoney3007 Рік тому +2

      It takes about five cubic feet of soil, potting mix only, to fill each tower, so it depends on the amount of soil in each bag, I use Kellogg's Raised Bed and Potting Mix, and add 13-13-13 fertilizer to it before planting. The Kellogg's products are 2 cubic feet per bag, so two and a half bags per tower. Two important tips: Fill each tier to the top with potting mix. It will settle down, so don't worry about overfilling it. Soak each tier before using the reservoir for watering. Also, transplants do better than direct seeding, and plant smaller plants at the top, and larger at the bottom. This time of year, I need a step ladder to harvest peppers from the top tier of my pepper tower, and it has the shortest pepper plants.

    Hey Jill and Nate! Is there a minimum order for your Greenstalk promo code? I was just trying to use it for a 3-Tier Original and the code wouldn't work. I already have the 5-tier, but it's taller than I'd like, so I want to combine the 3-tier and my 5-tier to make two 4-tiers.
