They will have to learn to climb steps to get to the goods and as a bonus, am adding castors to my boxes in order to rescue from hail under the eaves of my porch.

PRETTY!! They'd be a hit at a potluck. I have an amazing recipe "Julio's carrots" for sliced carrots in vinegar with jalapenos. Sure send me your seed list. I am on my way to Gulley this morning.
I will send a PM with my email address.

I am also in front range - Lakewood. First year for SFG, liking it a lot and plan on going from beds to boxes. Will also use some of the existing bed soil, as have been enhancing over the years, hard to let go there... Smile

Also plan on doing some 2x12 boxes for along side a 6-foot chain link fence, that is planned for next garden season.

Had some trouble getting the tomato plants to set, but read about "the Pollinators" use of a middle-C tuning fork. Tried that and actually saw pollen coming loose from the vibration. That was pretty cool to see and do have some cherry tomatoes that set in the past 90+ degree weather. Makes me a believer when these are not setting. Hopefully some of the bigger tomatoes will set also.
