It&#8217;s hard to know which one to choose. Assembling the grow box, choosing the right soil and the right place to put it can be challenging. With just a few basics established, you can have a successful gardening experience. We&#8217;ll help you create the right garden for your perfect space.<\/p>\n<p>Grow box designs eliminate problems that in-ground or raised bed gardens have:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They are at a comfortable standing height off the ground, so it&#8217;s easy to work in your garden.<\/li>\n<li>Your garden soil won&#8217;t come in contact with the ground soil, which can contaminate your growing soil with natural unwanted bacteria and microorganisms or pesticides in the soil from years past.<\/li>\n<li><em style=\"font-size: inherit;\">Root intrusion<\/em><span style=\"font-size: inherit;\"> from surrounding vegetation can be invasive and zap your soil of vital nutrients and water, making it impossible to grow vegetables.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><em style=\"font-size: inherit;\">Pests<\/em><span style=\"font-size: inherit;\"> are one of the biggest problems in gardens. Ants can take over the whole garden, bringing in and farming aphids. Slugs, snails and many other vegetable-eating bugs have free access to in-ground or container box gardens, leaving you with no other option than pesticides which will end up in the vegetables you eat.<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Rabbits, dogs and a endless number of ground-living critters will walk on by, and the elevated grow box design eliminates the need for a fence to keep out these unwanted guests.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Grow boxes eliminate these problems by having your garden box on <em>copper wrapped legs.<\/em> Slugs and snails will not cross over copper.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Powerful Growing Soil To Help Your Vegetables Thrive<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your garden is only as good as your SOIL. We build our own custom blend of nutrient-rich soil and amendments, using the best organic soils and compost available. Over the years, we have developed a soil recipe that is nothing short of amazing in garden performance and flavor of vegetables.
