Thank you for taking the time to plant your GroBox garden. With these simple instructions you will be able to enjoy year after year a Vegetable Garden.
Your GroBox garden is made from a selection of organic vegetable seeds, hand planted in our special growing medium, that stops pests and dieases attacking your seedlings whe they are young.
After a few short weeks you will have lot's of lovely vegetable seedlings, you can then thin them out, that is using a very small trowel you can gently separate each plantlet and move them into pots, containers (hanging baskets- anything goes) or just the garden border so they have more room.
Identification (What's What??)
As a rule of thumb, Beand tend to be large fleshy stalks with big leaves and tend to climb. Peas are similar but smaller, Onions, Chives, Leeks and Garlic are all single grass like leaves and the scents of the vegetables tend to help in identifying if its garlic or onion. Tomato's are a hairy stem and a ornate leaf, Carrots have a very flowing lace like leaf and Spinach is a large green leaf, as with lettuce, Chard and Greens.
The beauty of a GroBox garden is that you can plant it among your herbaceous border plants, under shrubs or in planters or baskets. The GroBox garden produces vegetables before most of your garden plants appear.
When to plant
