All right, I plan on doing a series of a numerous number of different patio growing systems, and today I'm going to focus on one. This is called the Urbin Grower, and it's a small bed that has a trough in the bottom for water, and it's a self-watering system. The thing that I really look for in all my planting systems is that it doesn't involve electricity, or pumps, or things, 'cause, believe me, that's jus beyond my technical capability.I've been working with this Urbin Grower for several months now, and I'm growing turmeric in it. Turmeric is an amazing medicinal plant. I'm sure you know all about it. Here's the photo of when I planted this where I just got some turmeric root that I picked up from the grocery store and planted it in here. This is how it's growing. I have to say that I love this container. I just checked to make sure that the water is always in the bottom here. That water is a natural moat that keeps ants and other insects out, and it's also a buffer that if I'm gone for a week, actually, this planter is generally going to be fine. So far, I have to say, if you're growing in small spaces, on patios, or for those precious plants that you want to have by your house, the Urbin Grower is really working out well for me. I do want to let yo know, I'm going to be doing a whole series on other planters, so definitely subscribe to the channel and we'll also follow this one along and all the other ones that we reviews of. This is Marjorie Wildcraft with The Grow Network.
