DIY Vertical Garden Planter
Tips, Tricks
A vertical garden planter box. Vertical gardening makes a lot of sense in more than one way. Small spaces is something a lot of us can relate with because it hits close to home. If you live in a condo or an apartment with a small balcony or patio, you can still garden. Simply do it vertically. For some gardeners, just the idea of caring for many different types of plants over a large area in their yard can be tiring. With vertical gardens, you can reign in your plants into a smaller, easier to care for area, while still keeping plant diversity. Another advantage of establishing a vertical garden is it allows you to experiment growing different types of plants without the need to dig up a larger portion of your yard or garden. This vertical garden planter is small enough to fit on a small balcony or patio and will fit through a standard size door way. The planter boxes are a size that makes them perfect for picking up and moving from an outdoor setting to an indoor setting depending on the weather. The only additional parts needed to do so would be the inclusion of a bottom for the base unit. Simple and easy! Nice.

Great design! I love how you can replace parts by taking out screws as needed. You have a very good point that your boxes will need to be repaired over time. New sub look forward to seeing more of your videos!

For garden-plant containers, softwoods like pine is better than spruce but both will rot over time when in contact with wet soil, the same is true for most hardwoods like oak. Instead use rot resistant-proof materials like red cedar, redwood, tamarack, and food safe-grade bpa free (plastic, rubber, fiberglass, or composite) 1×6's or 2×6's(pre-drill holes and use corrosion resistant deck screws) or premoulded-formed containers also available in stainless steel, enamel coated steel, or copper. Also glass, cement, or ceramic containers will work but are not as good because they can shatter when dropped and are too heavy. Steel-iron will rust. They will work but I do not like the idea of using galvanized steel or aluminum because the potential of leaching of metal into the soil. But never-ever use poisonous pressure treated wood for growing eatable vegetables.

i know prices vary according to what material you buy and whats on sale... but speaking of ballpark figures... how much was this to make... you solved a problem i was having with my limited space issue... and will need to make several vertical planters... just trying to get an idea of budget vs quantity of planters...

Stan, you are an efficiency master. Thank you for such well thought out easy to follow projects. This planter is great and would make a wonderful 'railing' for a patio/deck. Julianne sent me. Hi.
