Questions About The Garden Grid™

Can I Connect My Garden Grid to ...XYZ

You can feed water to the Garden Grid from nearly any water source. The most common of course is a garden hose from your spigot.

If you want to feed water to your Garden Grid from your sprinkler system or existing irrigation you can too. You will just need to ensure your system has a garden hose adaptor. These are common items at most hardware stores, made to fit your specific system. From this adaptor you can simply run a garden hose to your Garden Grid, or connect your Garden Grid to it directly.

If you need a short garden hose to make the connection, we make them to any length you need! From 1ft+ you can find them here.

Will The Garden Grid™ Fit In My Garden Bed? It Measures...

We size Garden Grids™ to fit the interior dimensions of most gardens, accounting for garden bed material thickness. 

To know which Garden Grid™ will fit your garden bed, reference the overall size of a Garden Grid™ in our product details and in the produce title. E.G. A 4×4 Garden Grid™ measures ~44″x~44″. 

If your garden bed is larger than any single Garden Grid™ size, you can connect multiple Garden Grids™ together with our multi-Garden Grid™ connection manifold!

Important Tip: To ensure the best fit of a Garden Grid™ always fill your garden bed to the very top with soil. 

Can The Garden Grid™ be used in my existing raised garden beds?

Yes! The Garden Grid™ can be used in raised garden beds or at ground level. Please refer to the dimensions of the Garden Grids™ on the product page to see which size is the best fit for your raised garden bed!

How Complicated is Assembly?

You can assemble any of our raised beds or Garden Grid™ watering systems by hand in minutes. That’s why we’re called Garden In Minutes®!

All of our raised garden beds assemble in just a few minutes by sliding the board ends together and inserting a connecting pin though a predrilled hole. That’s it!

The Garden Grid™ watering system ships to you in pre-assembled sections that you simply press together by hand! Any size is ready to use in about a minute!

What is The Garden Grid™ made of?

All Garden Grid™ watering systems are primarily made of LLDPE (Linear Low Density Polyethylene) tubing and ABS plastic fittings. LLDPE is a material commonly used for water lines in things like water purification systems. The Garden Grid™ watering system is all-season durable and designed to withstand a wide range of temperatures, from cold frozen winters to hot desert summers.

Can you connect The Garden Grid™ to a rain barrel?

The Garden Grid™ watering system requires a minimum of 10psi to operate to its full ability. If your rain barrel is elevated enough (approx. 25 ft), you should be fine. If not, a pump is recommended. Learn more about this here, in our rain barrel video.

Can I Connect Just One Garden Grid™ To A Manifold?

Yes! Each connection side of the manifold (the green parts on the top) has water control valves. These valves let you turn water on/off and all points between, for either connection side of the manifold. So if you want, you can have one Garden Grid™ connected to one side of the manifold and the other green connection point unused.

This comes in handy if you have multiple garden beds that only need one Garden Grid™, but the beds are spaced apart.

How Do I Interconnect Garden Grids™ That Are Spaced Apart, Using The Manifold?

The bottom of each manifold has an inlet and outlet for garden hoses. Connect a garden hose to the outlet side (capped side) and feed it to your other garden. Connect to another multi-Garden Grid™ connection manifold, or directly to a Garden Grid™.

Questions About Our Raised Garden Beds

How much soil do the raised garden beds/kits take to fill?

All of our raised garden bed layouts list an approximate volume of soil needed in the product details. As a general guide, for every 4×4×8″ tall area you will need approximately 12 cubic feet of soil.

Can I expand my Garden In Minutes Raised Garden Bed to make it larger?

Yes! Our Raised Garden Beds are all expandable by using our Expansion Kits! You can expand your raised garden to any shape or size! View our expansion kits here.

What are the characteristics of cypress wood in your Raised Garden Beds?

Characteristics of Cypress:

Cypress is a beautiful, strong, and character filled wood! Its durability and longevity make it ideal for raised bed gardening.  Our Raised Bed boards are generally 1-3/4″ x 7.75″,  but can range in size from 1-5/8″-1-3/4″ in thickness and from 7-5/8″- 8″ in height. To assure a high level of quality, we handpick and cut all of our Raised Garden Bed boards, so we know that everything fits together perfectly and will last many seasons to come!

  • Cypress varies in color from brown tones, to red, to nearly white, sometimes within the same board.
  • We use natural and unsealed 3S cypress which has three smooth sides and one rough side. Boards will have some knots in various areas .
  • Cypress  will “check” – it looks like splitting – but it is only a crack from drying and doesn’t go through the whole board.

Most wood, cypress included,  is subject to a natural process called “checking”. As wood releases moisture, checking can occur across or through its annual growth rings. This normal result of wood seasoning occurs only on the surface of the wood, and does not affect the wood’s structural performance or integrity. Checking can range from very slight slivers, to separated wood grain running the full length of the board to the heart of the wood. Checking is completely normal and in no way affects the integrity of the wood or the strength. In fact, these characteristics really add to the natural beauty of gardening with real wood!
