brother I bought the EarthBox because I make content on youtube for 6,000 subscribers , specifically so I can review them afterwards for my viewers. Maybe I will agree with you and they are a complete waste of money when you can build one .. but when you are using a specific product other people are looking into using as well it drives in more viewers (That is why I didn't build one) . Newbie tho ? I've been growing for 2.5 years which I know isn't a lot of time to compared to some people who have been going at it for decades now . I'm 22 years old and I have never paid for a light or grow tent besides the first one I got 2 years ago , and I get paid to create content of me growing weed . I've been sent thousands of dollars worth of products like grow tents , lights and seeds for free.. i'd say I am doing okay . Once again my point still stands it really shouldn't matter WHY I bought them , you never gave any input to the original post and essentially just called them trashed which was not what I asked lol

I'm just gonna put this out there but the Growbox is cheaper and practically the same thing as the Earthbox, only with a superior fill/overflow hole design. https://www.agardenpatch.com/

Yeah I have seen those as well . I already have the EarthBoxes now so it is no big deal . I just wanted to know what ways people had success growing in the EarthBoxes , specifically plant count .

I bought this 27 gallon container from Home Depot for $13. Drilled holes in bottom and used lid as a saucer.

It was busting out of my 4x4 by the end of flower

After cooking my soil I find 5g worth is good for a month per plant. So thats a 2g pot transplant to 10g.

You could nest two rubbermaids together for way less money than an earthbox. Drill some holes and stick a pvc standpipe in there.
The name is what is a gimmic, not the method

You're not going to find rubbermaids in EB's dimensions . That's important to some of us.

27gallon sips.

Here’s a sip that cost $11 total for tote, free 5 gallon pail, a garbage bag and the wick is a yoghurt container of which I ate the yoghurt, it was yummy if your wondering, vanilla I think. The Earthbox doesn’t come with any high priced edibles does it??? They could at least fill the wick with some free peanuts in the least

$11 is including the yogurt?

ThatBoyZooted said:

Exactly. If some of these guys shitting on EB's actually took the time to go look at the SIPS thread, they'd see it's not so easy or any cheaper. Factor in totes, pvc pipe, drainage, etc.. that shit adds up. Not to mention the time. No thanks, I'm cheap myself, but for $38 that fits my space perfectly, I'll open my wallet for family time.

Let me run to the hardware store , maybe the grocery store too for some yogurt , then eat the yogurt as fast as possible , use the restroom too because im lactose intolerant , then cut the holes and piece everything together . right there you just spent at least half of the price of an earthbox + your time and effort . I might have to wait a day or two to finish the yogurt so that I don't get banged up too badly . VS ordering a $38 product that's good to go and that I will most likely never purchase again . Like I said to each their own

It's a nice little kit they got there, DIY isn't for everyone.

I pity your toilet, get that sugar now, get an EB

Hey man , I appreciate anyone putting that time and effort in to make it on their own ! It's a cool little project and some people are into that , for this instance I wanted to use these EarthBoxes on my youtube , so other people who want to specifically get an earthbox can see what they are about

Some people want to dress up like Tim "The Toolman" Taylor and go to work on their DIY shindigs . That's their business ! I don't think I qualify as handsome or handy unfortunately ... what does make me ? Al Borland ? I'm fine with the purchase . and if anyone wants to make fun of me some more I bought 3 of them too . DIYers are shaking in their boots right now !!
