The Earth Box is an innovative approach to container gardening. The reservoir system ensures that the plants get exactly the water they need. All you have to do is keep the reservoir from drying out, which requires you to fill it every other day or so. You can’t over-water – you just fill the reservoir until water comes out the overflow hole.
Especially useful in hot climates is the fact that the box is on casters, so it can be wheeled out of the direct mid-day sun, if you want to do that. The directions for assembly are clear and assembly simple. You will need a large bag of potting soil, but that’s about it. If you plan to use the box for tomatoes, you don’t need to buy the staking framework that’s sold for a hefty price separately. A few good stakes from a home supply store will do fine.
