If on a balcony or teeny tiny area it could be great for micro greens or Cherry Tomatoes per one.


These were Hannah's Choice cantaloupes in EBs:

An arbor I constructed from EMT and trellis netting to support gourds. Later I used it for various cherry tomato plants, which really get tall and sprawl:

These are EMT trellises that support beefsteak tomatoes (and cucumbers) growing in EBs:

I have the space for gardening, but the moles/voles and tree roots drove me to find this easier solution. No more rototilling and weeding:

I hope this convinces you that EBs will grow just about anything, often surprisingly better than other methods Thumbs up
