QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ask a Question-
Can you grow these indoors as well? Or, at some point must you put outside? And if outside can you put several together in a container?
Mixing and matching in containers is a great way to make use of these seeds! Many of them are best started indoors before your last frost with the help of sunny window sills, grow lights, and heat mats. Individual instructions are printed on the inside of the tubes to help you with that process. Ultimately, all of these are "outside plants".

I received the Garden in a Box for Christmas-we live in Florida with sandy soil, should I plant in raised box with good soil?
Some seeds will do quite well in sandy soil! Y(If you open up each seed tube there are planting instructions printed right on the tube! You can also look for the product page for each variety!) However, a raised box with good soil is an excellent controlled environment for testing our your seeds.

we're thinking about giving this to our daughter in law for Christmas which is in Montana (very cold) so wondering if it's better to order and have it shipped later to their home in Colorado versus having it travel (days) in a car / sitting in a car??
Hi there! The Garden in a Box travels very well. It's entirely up to you. As long as it isn't going to freeze in the car, it should be fine.
