I’m interested in growing some “larger” vegetables in my WindowFarm, like lettuce, and I was curious if anyone had any experience with store-bought modified containers. Most shower caddies have hooks for (curtain) rods, and sturdy hanging plastic bins (easy enough to cut a small hole through). Would anyone be up for the challenge to take make a lean mean salad machine out of this?

Lettuce in a Shower Caddy?

Hello windowfarmers.   Here are some photos of our window farm and check out our video.  If you have any questions check out my previous posts or leave a comment.  Last night I harvested some basil right from the window and made pesto.  Love it!

Hi Folks,

Ryan here, new in Window Farmer town.

This community caught my eye because I am a beginner urban gardener and also a consumer of a large amount of these type of containers:

It is my intention to attempt to build a window garden to keep them out of landfill as the place where I’m living at the moment doesn’t have a recycling program for them.  I suggest that they might be an improved container for the Window Farmer system as they would not require seperate root covering. The downside is they are not as pretty and minimalist looking as clear water bottles!

Hope everyone is having success with their projects, and I look forward to sharing knowledge with you all.
