FAQ
Q: What plants are best for the GreenStalk 5 Tier Vertical Planter?
A: There are very few types of plants that aren't good in the GreenStalk at all -- you can't grow 2' long Daikon radishes in them, for instance! But a wide array of vegetables, strawberries, flowers and herbs grow well in the GreenStalk Vertical Planter.
Q: How much soil do I need?
A: Each Original Tier holds 1 cubic foot of potting mix (about 8 gallons/30.3 liters). Each Leaf Tier holds 0.8 cubic feet of potting mix (about 6 gallons/22.7 liters).
Q: Can the GreenStalk Vertical Planter be used indoors?
A: Our planters can be used indoors. We recommend adding grow lights based on your growing environment, and adding a GreenStalk Mover or Ultimate Spinner would be a necessity for ensuring water doesn't drain out onto the floor. Please note that water cannot be held for an extended amount of time in either GreenStalk Base and should be allowed to drain into another container.

- DawnAL, United StatesVerified ReviewerRated 1 out of 5 stars6/2/26Not good for vegetables
This was not what they say at all. I planted according to their directions and all my plants grew over the sides and bent and died. This is only good for herbs. VERY disappointing

The heirloom lettuce seeds grew so fast. And I absolutely love the green stalk. Perfect for leafy greens and herbs. Saved me so much space in an overflowing garden

These are great for small space planting! I have several. Buyer beware though- They will absolutely fall over in a strong storm- Mine did last year so I will be doing less tiers this year!

This is the second Blueberry Greenstalk I’ve ordered. I love the color—but so did my sister, so I gifted it to her. I saw this sale and couldn’t resist the chance to get my hands on another planter! It is absolutely gorgeous.
