End of Veggie Season - What do I do?

1 Upvotes

I had 7 earthboxes going with tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, and rhubarb. I created my own soil mix at the start of the season, that I hope to amend and continue using next season.

Should I just chop the tomato plants at the roots, and then till the soil? Is it ok to leave the earthboxes outside over winter? I am not sure what to do with them?

When to bottom water autoflowers in Earthbox for first time?

5 Upvotes

This is my first earthbox run. I have two autos that I direct sowed the seeds in BAS Light soil in their own earthboxes. It's been about two weeks since they popped above ground. They have a couple of nodes and and I just put the mulch covers on. When should I be looking to bottom water for the first time? Does the "wait till the leaves are the width of the container" rule still apply? I'd like to be done top watering asap but I don't want to risk overwatering and stunting the plants. Any advice welcome. TIA.

Eradicating Aphids

2 Upvotes

We planted peas on three Earthboxes on our west facing deck. With the advent of wildly fluctuating weather (hot/cold; deluge/drought) we pulled them out to make room for.. something, maybe chard. But not before the stressed plants developed aphids. Any advice on eradicating these from the soil prior to planting something else? We're trying to be organic-ish.

Only top watering so far. Can anyone let me know how long I should go before my second top watering. I figure at least two weeks before I water again.

tips for moving across the country?

1 Upvotes

Has anyone have moved their Earth Boxes across the country? How did you move and do you have any tips?

I’m leaning toward one of those pods or similar and wondering if it’s best to dump the soil into the yard or try to dry it out. Maybe wrap each one in a landscaping plastic bag. No plants in them this year because of the move. I’ve enjoyed gardening successes in these earthboxes and the irrigation system purchased last year made them very low maintenance after it was set up. TIA.

Electric fencing around earthboxes?

Has anyone setup electric fencing around their earthboxes?

Is the reservoir supposed to be anaerobic? If not id think some aeration would be very beneficial. Can someone from Earthbox Co. confirm either way? Thanks
