    Grow Bag

    October 30, 2011

    I am very excited about the following garden product.

    It is from Britain, it is a frame that allows you to hang a bag and grow things in it.  The bag is referred to as a grow bag.  The frame hanger was developed to make grow bags more efficient, easier to move and water.  Crown Garden Products in Great Britian developed, produces and sells the frame.  What is wonderful is that by using the frame you can move the bag easily.  It can be used on any bag of soil, but the one I like is the Grow Bag that is mentioned on the youtube.  It is 35cm x 95cm (13in x 37in) dimension.  The hanger has attachments that can be added to it, allowing you to grow vines also.  Meaning flowers or pea’s  This would be so much fun for those of us who have had to give up our large gardens and have patios to work with now, or the new gardener who wants a kitchen herb garden.  I am going to try the frame with the larger bags available to me now, but I want the smaller bag and will keep an eye out for them, as I am getting older.  For now I am going to use the large soil bag and empty some of it out to make it easier to maneuver.

    I have included the youtube web sites for you to go and observe for yourself.  I am very excited as I can see a myriad of uses, for those of us who want to start a patio garden, the frame makes it easy to move around, bring indoors or move out for more sun during your growing needs.  It would be fun to plant flowers as well as vegetables to bring a smile on our faces.

    Let me know what you think, as I want to sell the frames on this site.  It is important for me to hear your opinion.
