“Very good for growing a wide variety of crops and much longer lasting than alternatives made of wood. A more substantial way of being able to keep the cover open in windy conditions would be a major improvement. Stronger clips to secure the cover when closed would also help.”
“We needed a replacement lid after ours unfortunately blew away in the recent storm. This time I have also purchased wind straps in the hope it doesn't happen again. We've used our vegepod gor 2 years and love it we have massively extended our growing season and still are using carrots from it that we're sown last October.”
“I have both a small and a medium vegepod and love them both. Delivery is always efficient and the pods, covers and frames have lasted well.
Recently I ordered the wind straps to try but they’re poorly made. Trying to get the strap ends through without any fraying of the strap elastic outer or the inner elastic is difficult, then getting the ends in to the hooks is nigh on impossible rendering them useless. The grip the hooks have on the straps is not particularly strong. The concept is sound but the reality is poor. In to landfill they go and back to the drawing board for me.”
“Item seems good as a higher level propagation bed but drainage is not the best due to our climate
Have lowered the holes in the sides of the containers but still the compost is sodden”
“My second Vegepod as my first one is so full of vegetables that have grown from seed in 8 weeks so needed more space. Watering system makes life easy”
“We used this product with a community group of young people who are planting vegetables and companion plants to support the cafe they work in. Easy to build, safe to use and steady to move.”
