Can I plant different crops or mix varieties in the same box?Updated a year ago
Yes, planting two different crops (i.e. companion planting) or mixing varieties (e.g. different pepper types) are both possible in the EarthBox Original.
Popular combinations include:
- Peppers and tomatoes
- Tomatoes and eggplant
- Zucchini and summer squash
- Melons and winter squash
- Cucumbers and melons
- Peas and green onions
To find out more about which plants and vegetables can be mixed together and the combos that you should avoid, read our blog article on combining crops.
