How to YardFarm
Just place your YardFarm® and fill with soil. We recommend an engineered soil consisting of vermiculite (up to 10%), perlite (up to 10%), sand (up to 30%), and peat moss or compost for the remainder. Commercially available blends are good also. Plant your seeds leaving the appropriate space between them to allow for growth. Water as needed to keep the soil moist and fertilize once a month or so. Miracle Grow fertilizer products work well - follow instructions on the label. If you are growing vines or plants that yield heavy vegetables you will want to buy the optional trellis accessory to support the plants as they grow. If you would like to extend your growing season you may like the optional YardFarm heavy duty dolly which makes moving the YardFarm easy. Just roll your YardFarm into a shed or garage at night to prevent freezing. Then back out into the sunshine the next day.

What you grow and how you customize your YardFarm is limited only by your imagination. Some of our customers have created custom trellises with plastic sheathing to act as a greenhouse with good success. Others simply use YardFarm to grow decorative plants and flowers. Be free and grow wild.
