August 17, 2016 by Robin Plaskoff Horton
Update 7/2022: This contest has ended.
Looking for an easy way to grow a garden on a balcony, deck, or in any sunny spot you’ve got? Scroll down to enter our contest for a chance to win “The City Garden”–an eco-friendly kit that has everything needed to grow cucumbers, peppers, and tomatoes.
Getting Started
The City Garden is a fun and easy system to master–even for those with brown thumbs. The kit comes with non-GMO seed packets and a cute greenhouse with seed starting discs for germinating your seeds. There are also fertilizer packets developed specifically for the vegetables you will be growing.
Secret’s in the Soil
City Garden’s secret to success is in the soil media made from coconut husks, aka coir peat. Coco peat is organic in nature, sustainable and renewable. Growing with coir is an eco-friendly choice that roots love, which translates to healthy plants.
Many soil and potting mix manufacturers now use coir in their soil blends because it’s a longer-lasting mix and also promotes moisture retention and aeration.
All-in-One Kit
The kit comes complete with detailed instructions for starting your seeds, expanding your coir block (everyone’s favorite part), setting your fertilizer pellets, and planting your seedlings. Just follow the directions, add water, and you are growing!
