I bought two Growboxes this spring, to try to bring an Aerogarden-like experience to the great outdoors, on my narrow 3rd floor bedroom balcony. These have now been growing for 3 seasons straight, though it's November now, and soon even the fall greens will have to end.

This is just a lightbox show of the "squashbox" progression over the seasons. May add more commentary later.

My growboxes arrived late - backordered. Which was a drag, since I'd started plants for them indoors. The rule of thumb locally is that it's safe to plant anything outside after Mother's Day. (Not true this year - I lost my first round of basil plants that way. ) Anyway - they arrived, and I put spinach and bean seeds in them.

... Heh. Haven't gotten to reconstructing most of this yet, but...

Week 27: The End. Harvested the last of the spinach and mustard greens Friday, and the last of the lettuce today. Late autumn's been warm, but tonight, that ends - forecast calls for every night below freezing for the rest of the month. I left spinach stumps there, but really expect only swiss chard to continue at these temps.
