This might interest you more. If you ordered 3, you could save $5.70. You'd only pay $105 and that includes your shipping and handling. Does that sound better for you? (if yes place order, if no continue)

I want 6 for $119.50 - like you have printed in your brochure.

What can I grow in it?

Anything you grow in the ground can be grown with better success in the Garden Patch - well except maybe a tree. Some of our customer's favorites are: tomatoes, herbs, cucumbers, salad ingredients, peppers, onions, carrotts, corn and beans amongst others. With your order, you'll receive a complete planting diagram that has suggestion for just about anything you'd want to grow.


How does it work?

On the bottom of the Garden Patch, there is a 4-gallon water well and on the top of the potting mix, there is a nutrient patch that serves as a fertilizer dispenser. As your plants drink water, the water reservoir replaces the water into the soil. As nutrients are used for growing, the fertilizer patch constantly replaces them. The nutrient patch has all the nutrients your plants will ever need, so you'll never have to add any more. With this system, your plants are receiving the ideal amount of moisture and nutrition 24 hours a day - 7 days a week. Plants grow like crazy in this ideal environment.


Does it come with the dirt, fertilizer and plants?

The Garden Patch comes with everything you'll need for your garden except potting mix and plants. The shipping expense to ship a heavy bag of soil would be too much. However, the instructions you receive with your order make recommendations for potting mix. Plant varieties found locally are best suited to your climate. 


What kind of potting mix do I need?

Almost any brand of potting mix for containers or hanging plants will work. It should be light and spongy. Remember to get potting mix and not potting soil. Potting soil is very heavy and dense and will not work well. You can find the potting mix at K Mart, Walmart, Home Depot, Rickles, Scotty's, home stores or any nursery - many grocery stores also carry potting mix during the spring. 


How big is it? What is it made of?

The Garden Patch measures 15 inches wide, 2½ feet long and 1 foot tall. It's big enough to grow just about anything, but small enough to fit on your patio or deck. It's made of UV treated plastic and will last for years. 


What colors do they come in?

The Garden Patch comes in dark green and terra cotta.


How much does the Garden Patch weigh?

The Garden Patch weighs around 8 pounds when it arrives. Once it is filled with potting mix and water, it will weigh about 50 pounds. 


Can I use it indoors or in a greenhouse?

The Garden Patch works great indoors and in greenhouses. The only thing you need to make sure of is that your plants receive ample light - usually about 6 hours a day.


Will it work for _____ (kind of plant)?

Absolutely. You can plant basically anything in the Garden Patch.


Is there a Money Back Guarantee?

Absolutely. We're so confident that you'll love the garden you grow with your Garden Patch that we offer a one-year 100% money back guarantee.


How often do you water and fertilize?

Once you place the provided Nutrient Patch on top of your soil, you're finished fertilizing for the season. As for watering, you have to add water about once a week when your plants are growing. When they get large and start bearing fruit, you may have to add water twice a week.


How is it shipped?

Your Garden Patch will be delivered to you by Federal Express Ground. While we try to get your order to you as soon as possible, we ask that you allow 2-3 weeks for delivery.


How long have you been selling the Garden Patch?

We have been working with and perfecting this system of growing since 1995 with limited release in several different areas of the country. You may not have heard of the Garden Patch due to the way we only advertise directly to people we think may be interested.


Do you ship outside the United States?

Unfortunately, the Garden Patch is only available in the US and it territories. We can ship to Alaska, Puerto Rico, Guam and Hawaii for an additional $7 each.



Is the plastic safe - are the chemicals going to leach into my vegetables?

The Garden Patch is completely safe for growing edible plants. We use the same material they use for cutting boards and other food containers. AND, the material we use for the fertilizer pouch harmlessly dissolves into water. just like those "breath strips".
