Window Box Template Gardening

Last summer my wife and I started gardening on the deck more intensively. We began by building a plant stand for the deck that held four 24” planters. After reading about various intensive planting methods, we decided to make templates for planting seeds in the planters. We have provided two different templates. Depending on the vegetable grown, each template provides a double row planting layout that accommodates the narrow width of the planter. Due to the small size of the container in general, it is ideally planted with radishes, lettuce, spinach, onions, carrots and the like. Just place a few seeds in each hole and thin after they have two true leaves.

Sounds like fun. Do share a picture of the outcome when you can, many of us can learn from you.

That is a fantastic idea with the holes in the piece of wood! It makes whatever you grow in that box looks so neat!

Great idea! Love the organization/spacing.

That looks like it would make things so much easier, and help avoid wasting seeds too! Hope it works out because that is really clever
