Finished another thing! And in miserable weather, too.
Thanks to my wife for doing all the planting, and to my mum for helping with construction and supplying much of the materials as a ‘lots of assembly required’ Christmas present.
It’s a BIG balcony-mounted garden box.

Herbs, lettuces, and a chilli plant. All set and ready to grow.

Sturdily anchored to the support posts, let’s hope it won’t fall down.

1.9 m wide, and built out of treated pine. Note the straps underneath to stop the planters from falling through. (Nobody wants that landing on their head) Also, the EIGHT retaining straps (3mm gal steel) anchoring it to the wall.

They’re enjoying the otherwise miserable weather we’re having!
