This tutorial was so helpful. You do a much better job of explaining this simply and thoroughly than any of the other videos I’ve watched!

I like window boxes. It allows you to look through plants/flowers when looking outside. At the three-min mark, you can see the wood grain. Notice that the grain is cupped the same direction. Flip the top board over. Then, each piece will keep the other from warping. Securing to the house first was smart. Makes the job much easier.

Great Tutorial! You could line the inside of the box with a piece of pond liner in order to make them last longer. This prevents the wood from rotting. Just staple the liner to the wood on the inside of the Box. I did that in all my raised beds and they have lastet many years longer.

Thank you! And thank you so much for the info on the pond liner, I will definitely go and pick some of that up and use that in future projects. Thank you so much for that!

AWESOME. AWESOME VIDEO!!! Thank you for the great details. I find that Window boxes on the market are too shallow and doesn’t give me the depth I’m after to get the results you guys have. I’m a new fan and love your channel!

Thank you so much, so happy you found us Suzi! You were totally right most boxes are too shallow, having them nice and deep allows for great results!

Nice job and detailed instructions, Jason! 💪 I'm curious as to the weight of these boxes .. before the soil and plants ofcourse . Your a great catch and family man . 💯%. Thank you!

I’m doing this with a window on the side of my house! I’m just lagging behind this year lol. I love the wooden brackets? I guess that’s what you’d call them. They’re so pretty! Great video!
@TheLawrenceGardenFarm 4 жыл бұрын
Thank you! It’s funny they are actually made out of a hardened Styrofoam, they are made by a company called fypon, They have a woodgrain look and you can stain them any color

No I thought you would plant it up with us!!!!! I was really waiting for that, however, it looks so lovely, well done. I really like this, my wall is build from brick so putting up a window box is not so simple for me. I'm doing my research though, I really want to figure it out. Nice stain as well!

No we didn’t plant our big ones, we were talking about our small little ones in the courtyard. We just planted up our big ones and we will be sharing it in video soon! Just got done filming it

You make it look so easy. I. Was thinking about the holes at the bottom. Do not want water stuck at the bottom. I caught the end of your live chat last eveming. Jason pine is quite a soft wood i thought.. Lovely new window Boxes.. Casey do you know your colour scheme and what you are putting in them . Lots of love from England. ❤❤❤❤🌻🦋🐞🌼
@TheLawrenceGardenFarm 4 жыл бұрын
Thank you! Definitely have to have those holes for water drainage, yes pine is a soft wood But it does OK outdoors

Had to watch again, just watched your 2021 recipe, I haven't done any widow boxes, but I think this will be nice to put around the deck👍😀 (its not that big, about 10 x 10)

Nice box , question would it help to glue the pieces together , for extra support then screw the boards
@TheLawrenceGardenFarm 4 жыл бұрын
Yes absolutely, the only reason I didn’t is because I did not have any on hand and wanted to get them built but that is definitely an even better way to do it

Would lining the wooden box with heavy-duty plastic (of course with holes lining up with the wood holes) help preserve the life of the wood or possibly hold moisture? Also, can pressure treated wood be used or would that damage the plants? TY for the video as always! 😊

Shouldn’t you have doubled up the bottom of the box for extra security? You did say it may rot with constant use. Looking from Trinidad and Tobago.
@TheLawrenceGardenFarm 4 жыл бұрын
Yes you couldn’t go wrong doing that, the only reason I didn’t was because of the weight of the entire box, but the way I built it it was already pretty heavy to wear adding another board on the bottom would’ve probably been fine. I did cut two pieces of the 1 by 12, And fasten them to the underneath of the box so that it will support that bottom piece
