Need The Perfect Garden For Your RV?


In my travels I see RVers with tomato plants, house plants and a variety of other fruits and vegetables. They are usually stationary for a while, like campground hosts or work-campers, and they manage to keep a garden. Here is a portable solution for a care-free high-tech growing system that controls soil conditions and doubles the yield of your crop with less fertilizer, less water and little effort. There is no digging, weeding or guesswork. It set’s up in minutes and can go anywhere. Here is a link with more information Earth Box . It costs around $65.00 or you can make one yourself for around $10.00 Do It Yourself Either way you will get more bang for your buck with this type of gardening system.

Portable Greenhouses

For you snowbirds with a green thumb who like to grow tomatoes and flowers in the desert but find it difficult because of the nighttime freezing temperatures, Flowerhouse TM is just the ticket.

We’ve been at Edwards Air Force Base Family Camp the last few days and I couldn’t resist taking these pictures of this portable greenhouse. It measures 5 feet wide by 5 feet long by 6.6 feet High and is self erecting. The night before last our exterior water hose froze and that would ruin a nice tomato plant unless of course you had one of these. This is the clear “Planthouse 5” and costs $159.00 delivered. The wind here routinely gusts up to 25 knots or more and this greenhouse stays right where it was planted, held in place by stakes. Flowerhouse carries many different models and sizes. They are all portable and can be assembled in less than five minutes. Here is the website: http://www.flowerhouses.com/intro.shtml If you want to order these on the internet here is a dealer with free shipping: http://www.4seasongreenhouse.com/index.php

They even have opaque storage units that resemble a regular back yard shed.
