Stacking Planter FAQ's
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!
Here’s some inspiration 🙂 :
Beet Root | Lettuce | Spinach | Kale | Capsicum | Tomato
Cucumber | Celery | Beans | Herbs | Strawberries | Carrot
Swiss Chard | Pumpkin | Bok Choi | Chillies | Snow Peas |
Zucchini | Broccoli | Shallots
You get the picture right! 🙂 You can pretty much grow anything. Just ensure you’re providing enough sun…
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…
Yes. Food Safe Polypropylene #5. Like what yogurt containers are made of except we use a lot more of it.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
As long as you have a support through the middle, you can stack them as high as you want!.
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.
Yes. See these DIY Towers or the 3 Tower Smart Farms for a simple guide. Anyone can do this.

Purchased this for my daughter who grows everything. She needs something for small spaces. This is great planter that can fit in a smaller space (apartments, small patio). You can use as many tiers as you want. I like the fact that it is plastic, so it is light weight. I know she is going to love it. Herbs for everyone!
Strawberries are growing well. You have to remember to water them a lot. The bottom layer tends to get much wetter feet than the top layer so there will be some variability in the wetness or the soil. On the positive side, the strawberries hang out over the sides of each layer so they are less likely to get ground rot,
Arrived in good condition with all parts and exactly as shown and described.
so I am giving it 4 stars based on that.
HOWEVER, there are a few design issues that are not their fault, and I've decided not to dock them for this, as it may not be an issue for your needs, please read on.
If you have this in direct sunlight like mine is, we have to water it A LOT.
Also, I noticed that the top tier only seems to drip down every other tier, so you have to drip from the second tier too, if you want the waterfall effect while watering.
I may change my system over to a wick style for watering by setting it on a underground bucket and having the pole have holes with strings or something that can pull up the water from the bucket. It's just way too dry.
So far I had it for more than two months and still looks like new, not bad for the price.
I bought this for my strawberry plants and I love it! It is incredibly convenient and I placed it right on my front porch and the plants grow very well in it. One does need to keep the plants well watered, as the dirt dries out quite quickly, so I water it almost every day. This is a great product and I would highly recommend it to others!
I received my planter a while ago but were waiting for my Strawberry seeds from Japan. Never received them so I bought 25 bare root strawberries. Received 26. Over a dozen actually had leaves on the bare root. Anyway, planted the 20. Looks fabulous. Planted the other 6 in a pot. Might buy another one of these for other berries. Love it.
It was more than I expected. It held 25 strawberry plants. It was fun to set up and the grand daughters love to water it and watch the plants grow. So fun and a learning experience...with the prize of fruit. No down side.
to grow plants and do not have any to use single pots. I am very satisfied with this purchase and will in the future by more to expand.
