VIDEO: Vertical Gardening – Simple Ideas for a Vertical Vegetable Garden


💛 📖 See the GrowVeg book here: https://www.growveg.com/growveg-the-beginners-guide-to-easy-gardening.aspx.
If your space is limited and you’re looking for ways to increase the amount you can grow, then vertical gardening could be the perfect solution for you.

With a little careful planning you can create your garden so plants that are happy to grow vertically still produce an abundant harvest whilst using a fraction of the ground space.

In this video we discuss the many different types of plants which can be grown vertically and demonstrate some simple structures you can easily build yourself to provide the support these plants will need.

  1. To my knowledge?, sweet peas are ornamental plants and are not edible.  I only mention this since the title is about growing vegetables, and the suggestion to grow an unedible plant might confuse a newbie to gardening.  Other than that, your video is very creative and interesting… offering lots of inspiration.

  2. I bought tall plastic laundry baskets with air holes , I plan to put a dustbin bag in it , fill it with potting soil , cut holes in it and then plant with strawberries , lettuce and radishes etc , with herbs on the top . I can keep the strawberry plants and the herbs in all year and harvest the salad and replant with seedlings .

  3. No doubt about that. I grow my microgreens in vertical stands on my micro farm in Australia.
    Thanks for the video tips.

  4. I have a "cavity wall" system that can accommodate an 8 or 12 wide open cavity to fill with soil. The sides can be "perforated" with holes to let plants grow out horizontally, and then whatever. Supports can be simply added. The challenge is to use all four exposures of the wall, north, east, south, and west, with the appropriate plants. A wall, say 8 feet high, can receive waste water or better put "nutrient solution" at the top. As it makes its way down, it's purified by multi faceted "mircrobial" root action. Water that makes it to the bottom can be collected by a buried perforated pipe. I think it's a new science and opportunity to combine plants productively given four concurrent exposures. Any help with this would be appreciated. My site is concretebuildingsystem.com. Cheers!

  5. Hello. I'm a novice gardener. I'd like to grow a vertical garden on the roof of my house … specifically I want to use vertical racks, one on top of the other, but i'm afraid that the vertical stand will not be strong enough to support the weight of the soil and vegetables and will collapse. Also, I think if I use metal to build the structure, it will rust and plastic is not a possibility. What about PVC pipes? will it be strong enough to grow stuff like tomatoes of green veggies like broccoli? Any advice please
