2022 Garden Plan Ready!
GreenStalk Vertical Planter
Well I was bored and sick at home with a stupid head cold, so I decided to put my Leaf GreenStalk Vertical Planter together. I bought the original tower too for strawberries but they didn’t send the spinning base. So, unfortunately I have to wait to construct that one.…

Save your Toilet Paper Rolls for Gardening!
I like to save a few of my toilet paper rolls to help with my seedlings.
Also cut rolls down the middle and make smaller rings. Place them around smaller seedlings to help support them too.…
