Stacking Planter FAQ's

What can I grow?

Grow anything from herbs, lettuce, strawberries & greens to full blown fruiting crops such as tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini even tubers such as potatoes, carrots and beet root!

You get the picture right! 🙂 You can pretty much grow anything. Just ensure you’re providing enough sun…

Can I convert to hydroponic at a later date?

Yes certainly. The stacking planters in the 5 tier sets are exactly the same as the hydroponic kits. So you can buy a small 5 tier set and see how it works, then once you’re happy scale up to a larger set-up if desired…

Are the planters made from food safe material?

Yes. Food Safe Polypropylene #5. Like what yogurt containers are made of except we use a lot more of it.

What size of planter should I buy? Medium (33cm) or Large (45cm)

This all depends on what you want to grow. The 33cm width pots have a capacity of 5 litres each which is suitable for lettuces, herbs, spinach, beetroot, flowers and plants with smaller root systems. The 45cm width pots have a large 15 litres capacity each. This is ample space to grow all kinds of fruiting vegetables such as tomatoes, capsicum, eggplant and even pumpkin or watermelon if you really want!

Can I fill them with soil instead of coco coir?

Yes, and many customers do. Make sure you use good quality well draining potting mix. Great news is Mr Stacky is modular, so you can start small and build a self sustainable garden over time.

Are the poles necessary?

While the poles are not 100% necessary, Mr Stacky planter sets come with a center pole which adds stability and allows you to move the garden from above as the pole extends above the planter. Other stacking planters do not provide this. This also allows you to convert your 5 tier kit into a hydroponic tower kit if you want.

How do I water?

Simply water the top pot! Each stacky has drainage holes in the center and outer clovers which disperse water optimally to touch all the root systems on the way down. This flow through design ensures pooling of water or root rot.

Can I plant from seed?

Yes. Here is a short video

How do I raise it off the ground?

We have raised garden kits for you to purchase or alternatively, just buy some 19mm galvanized metal poling and cut to required size, then put 20mm PVC over this, then either 32mm PVC (for medium planters) or 50mm PVC (for large planters) cut to required length. The planters sit on the riser PVC and the center pole provides stability as hammered into the ground.

How much water should I provide?

When you see the bottom dripping, this means the above layers are saturated so you want to stop watering before you see drips from the bottom. As a rule of thumb it’s much better to provide regular small doses of water opposed to less regular longer feeds.

For example, the DIY systems normally feed 3 times a day for example 9am, 1pm, 5pm at 1 minute intervals.

How high can I stack the planters?

As long as you have a support through the middle, you can stack them as high as you want!.

Do the planters come with water saving inserts?

Some stackable planters on the market use inserts inside each planter designed to hold water in each layer. This is not good practice! Pooling water promotes disease such as root rot. Mr Stacky planters are FREE FLOWING. Free flowing water is essential for transfer of nutrient and oxygen to the root zone and we do not recommend inserts.

Can I connect multiple towers together

Yes. See these DIY Towers or the 3 Tower Smart Farms for a simple guide. Anyone can do this.

Great system, amazed at how easy it is to grow in these. Have consistently outperformed my in ground beds. Best tip for new growers is to pay attention to plant sizes when sowing and prepare accordingly. Have been caught out a few times with plants becoming way bigger than I realised.

I have previous experience with hydroponic growing, but as I have now moved to a house with a very small outside area I wanted something to grow produce in a small space. The Mr Stacky tower fitted the bill perfectly!

I was surprised how vigorously everything grew. I am now giving produce away to my neighbours (especially beans!) as it is producing more than I can use!
Thankyou Mr Stacky for a great product!

2.5 years into the estimated 3 month renovation decided not to wait for promised raised garden beds and get a Mr Stacky instead. New to the journey but very impressed with the variety of plants we can have in such a compact space!

I grow some herbs, spinach, and lettuce. I find the 5 tier stack easy to move around, easy to look after, the plants thrive in the coir and the nutrients are easy to apply.

The first pic is my Stacky after 6 months, the second is when I started the plants, third is a delicious salad I made from all the leaves and herbs in my MR Stacky. I love it.

Very happy so far. Only had it for a couple of months so my strawberries are still growing but I can already see some flowers! My daughter loves eating them straight from the plants so their height will be perfect.

We purchased a Mr Stacky for our daughter who is loving it.
She sent her pictures to us saying “ the bottom row of our mr stacky became a
snacky for one little man Boo”. Living inner city means minimal garden so Mr
Stacky is brilliant. So Mr Stacky is also Mr Snacky for both our daughter and
her bunny Boo.
