Boxes over Pots

There’s a chain of thought that boxes are cheaper than pots, and are good for training… something midway between putting it in the ground, and a bonsai pot. Here’s a photo to record the idea.

Boxes over Pots
Credit to u/hallgeir. I like this photo because it clearly shows the build of the boxes. Also, the ambition of the number of new trees to be harvested.

Things to note:

  • wide spaces in the floor for draining (this would get covered with wire)
  • feet on the boxes so roots die before reaching the ground
  • somewhat shallow (I’m guessing 4 inches?)
  • simple construction, driven by the side of the planking
