Hi Oliver,
Mike and I first learned
of My Garden Post when doing a search for vertical garden systems and thought
it would be ideal for our RV travels. When we arrived in Arizona for the winter,
we placed an order for a MGP soon after we settled into our park. It arrived a
few days later and we’re very happy with our purchase. Your blog has given us
some good ideas. Mike thought you would enjoy the attached pictures and details
of our first gardening experiences.
Assembly went off without
a hitch, just as your instructions promised. Mike systemically followed steps
to install the drip irrigation system. It took us about 45 minutes and it works
like a charm. A few of our neighbors stopped by to see what we were up to. They
were impressed; you should see some orders from them in the near future.
Mike is proud to include
this picture of the drip tubing arrangement in the base. It’s very innovative. We
love it.
The day after we
assembled our My Garden Post, Mike and I headed off to Lowe’s for soil, plants
and fertilizer. We weren’t able to find some of the varieties you recommend, so
we just bought plants we thought we would enjoy growing. Our plan is to make
full use of all the planters and thin the plants later as we have to.
We chose a couple
tomatoes and a red California pepper. The thyme and rosemary looked very
healthy so we bought a 4” pot of each. I wanted some color and added pansies,
petunias and alyssum. We bought a couple seed packs of mixed greens and plan to
germinate them inside and transplant them to the planters in a month or so. As
the planters begin to fill out, we’ll send you more pictures and an update on
our success.
We no sooner got MGP
planted when Mike commented that it would be great to have one or two more. So
don’t be surprised if you see another order from us come through.
Plans are to stay here in
Arizona until May, then hit the road again. We’re thinking that we might stow
our My Garden Post fully assembled in the RV when travel to our next location.
Thank you so much; we
love our My Garden Post.
Linda and Mike
Mesa, Arizona
