Description
The EarthBox Organic Garden Kit in Terracotta is built around the patented EarthBox, a sub irrigated planter (SIP) developed by commercial farmers.
It is described as a maintenance-free growing system, proven in the lab and on the farm, that controls soil conditions, eliminates guesswork and more than doubles the yield of a conventional garden, while requiring less fertilizer, less water and virtually no effort.

How to use
The EarthBox manufacturers say the product is designed to hold 2 cu ft of soil. Build A Soil recommends filling it with its living organic soil.
Notice: The EarthBox will hold about 10 gallons of soil and can be mounded to hold even more. That said, 2 cubic feet of the living organic soil is closer to 15 gallons and won't fit inside the container. You'll need about 1 - 1.5 bags of the living organic soil to fill one container, depending on what you want to top dress with.
