It looks nice but it is too high, too expensive and it needs to be on wheels that can be easily moved around. It would have to be something that I can put together myself. My raised beds (Earthboxes) in their stands are 30 high which is perfect for most people. I am short (4'9) and 74 years old. I have peppers and determinate tomatoes in my boxes. The indeterminate tomatoes are in the Earthboxes that are for root vegetables. If they were any taller I would need a ladder to get to the top. My sugar snap peas I need a stool to get to the top: ) WAY TOO EXPENSIVE! Thanks for demonstrating it. You do an awesome job. Thanks again.

I think wicking beds are cool technology and frankly. I would love to have one. But the cost is WAY too high for the regular gardener. I also think that if the weight is so heavy as to need such support on the base of it. it will never work for the average person's situation. And thirdly I think it is too tall for most of us. Now aren't I a sad sack today! :) P. S. I must admit I was shocked at the affordability when I went to the website. It's still higher than a lot of people can afford. but not in the stratosphere: )

I love gardening and have done so since I was a child (now 68. Bending over has become a major problem and I love raised beds. But I'm still finding it difficult because they are usually on the ground. This one is the granddaddy of all raised beds. But aren't you worried by putting it in front of your garage? Moving this thing looks like a 12 man job.

I have an SIP but its not nearly as beautiful. Mine is lined with black pipes and works sot of like Earth Box. Am going to cover it with green house cloth and wondering if I can still use it in the winter and if so should I continue to water it using the spout and not use the bed at all. Secondly is I have it covered will it freeze in zone 7b.

Love this type of system! I have issues with my spine that make it difficult for me to do a lot of bending over or bending down. I have some raised beds but nothing as wonderful as this. Can't wait to see how all of the growing goes.

Pretty cool. I wonder if, over time, one would find that the initial cost is worth the saved energy on the body.
What date were those veggies planted? Seeds or started before-hand?

Im surprised you planted tiny pepper seedlings - how did they turn out? Here in Australia we tend to harden off our plants and let them grow around 3-4 inches before planting in full sun/wind.

Over 1650. 00 $$$$ can buy a lot of food. a real farmer would shake his head at this rip off. If I got it free LIKE U OK, BUT NO THANKS I'M NOT A MILLIONAIRE.

1500 pounds isn't that much. We built a hugelgarden. Took 5 1/2 months (by hand) and a whopping 17 TONS of material. And ours is not a big one either.

So it has been a year, are you still using this raised bed and why the tubing on the top, thought the point was to water from below?
