Question
What Can I Grow?
What cant you grow? is a better question. Because the depth of the cells is 8.5 inches and each holds 6 quarts of soil there are plenty of options. And since the cells maintain constant moisture, temperature and proper aeration, plants benefit from an optimum growing environment. Most any garden vegetable, herb, flower or starter plant can be successfully harvested in a NeoGarden. From tomatoes to cucumbers, carrots to spinach, chilies to beans, your gardening adventures are limited to your imagination.
Question What Makes It Work?
The patented cellular growing design is what makes the NeoGarden growing box so successful. The cells are 8 inches deep which is an optimum average depth for a healthy root system. The unique shape of the cell helps prevent root circling, yet plants grow closer together. This limits moisture evaporation from the soil. The drain board provides efficient drainage of surplus water and creates air space for the root system. Last, but not least, nutrients are better retained in the soil, so less fertilizer is required.
Question How Easy Is It, Really?
Its really easy! NeoGardens were designed to be flexible, portable and convenient for all. Not only will you be able to grow a wide range of plants or vegetables you will also save on water, labor time and energy. Assembly is minimal, allowing for quicker use of the garden. A full garden can be easily prepared and started in a few short hours. The rolling models are designed for indoors to outdoor use for seasonal changes. They also offer height adjustability for persons wishing to be seated or standing while gardening. A great adaptive gardening experience.
Question What Kind of Soil Can I Use?
A quality packaged potting soil mixed with a top soil works best. Soils dug from the landscape may contain insects, weed seeds, or disease organisms. Compost, too, is a very effective growing medium and works quite well in this system. You can choose cells to hold different types of soil as needed for a variety of plants. Make sure the cells are completely filled and level. Soils will not mix and fertilizer can be added to individual cells without worry of runoff or spoilage to other cells and soil.
Question How Is It Watered?
A light spray hose or watering pitcher is generally used. Excess water isnt retained in the soil or the cell but, instead, drains slowly keeping the plants properly aerated and moist. Even with additional rain the garden will drain off what is not neededand you can capture the runoff for recycling.
Question When Can I Start My NeoGarden?
The rolling gardens can be started at any time during the year since they can be brought inside once the weather gets colder, or moved outside with warm weather. As with any garden youll need proper light for the indoor use. The outdoor models can be tented to gain several growing weeks at both the beginning and end of a gardening season. For some southern and warmer climates NeoGardens can be year round gardens.
Question Who Does NeoGardens Benefit?
Anyone can benefit from the gardening experience. Because NeoGardens are so easy to use both the novice and experienced gardener can find success. Children love tending to the gardens, seniors enjoy the compact size and adjustable height, families benefit from fresh produce, and everyone saves on their grocery bill. The gardens are perfect for beginner gardeners, providing an optimal growing environment that makes it almost fool proof.
Question OK, What's The Real Cost Benefit?
The cost benefits vary from one gardener to the next but families using the Abundant Harvest 4x4 model can expect approximate savings of up to $400 per year with continual harvesting. While some people choose to garden only seasonally, and different produce sells at different rates, global savings are impossible to predict. Generally the cost of a NeoGarden unit will almost pay for itself the first year.
