Why grow your own food horizontally when you can grow whirli...
What is Whirligro?  The whirligro is an exciting new product for
growing plants in a vertical manner, suitable for people with
small gardens or mobility restrictions. Read more  The Whirligro
is made up from individual growing tubes, each one holding 3
plants. Each Whirligro holds 10 tubes, spiralling around a
central post...that’s 30 plants in an area under 1m by 1m. Each
plant grows through a hole in the plastic tubing so that the
only area that ever needs weeding is a couple of inches wide.
And if you use new compost, without any weed seeds, you will
never have to weed at all.  You simply fill each growing tube
with compost as you need them, insert a few seeds or seedlings,
and water them in. Watering is easily done by hand using a small
watering can, or you can use widely available drip-irrigation
systems to automate the whole process.  No More Pests Because
the Whirligro holds the plants above the ground, there is almost
no chance of pests
