Morning folks ! Are these stack-able ? Meaning can I build one really deep bed for tomato plants or is this limited to just the 2 bed configuration ?

The panels are packed separately and I believe that you can configure them however you want to. With that said, you'd probably need to purchase two to get the configuration you want. However, as it shows, the back is plenty deep enough to plant tomatoes. I planted tomato plants in the back part and got a very nice harvest. Also you might consider using some of the smaller bush tomato plants as well. The first year I used these, I purchased four plant boxes and placed them corner to corner in a + shape leaving a large square area in the center. That configuration allowed for deep planting. I used plastic L shaped molding to put in the inside corners so that I wouldn't loose all of my dirt when watering. It worked out very nicely. If you can give me your e-mail address, a Facebook page, or a cell phone number I would send you a picture of what I did, if you'd like. I don't think they allow pictures on here, but I will look. If I can find a place I will post it there.

I'm sorry, but I used it as it was. I don't know if that is possible or not.

You can put the smaller one on top of the larger one if you want to. The largest one you can plant tomatoes in it as well. It is deeper than it looks. When you get it filled with dirt it makes a nice planter. We put weed blocker under our dirt to keep the weeds down. They are neat above ground gardens.

Yes you can!! We have stacked them 2 high (2 big squares) but it would be easy to add another . 2 high was just fine for the tomatoes. But I will warn you that the tomatoes do get very tall but it is nice to just reach in with very little bending.

The lazy Susan is pretty sturdy, but I don't think I would be comfortable stacking them. Besides, you would lose storage space on the top of the first one.

I just noticed the top parts come out, giving you a little more than half an inch to nest the next level, so, sorry, my former answer was wrong. They do appear to be stackable.

I would not climb or set on these because they are not made that sturdy. I don't think they would stack very well. They are all the same size. I like them for storage that are set in shelves.

Possible, yes. Advisable, no. It would not be safe to stack these higher than two per set.

No, they are designed for 2"x6" width boards...preferably cedar because it is durable and not toxic. The hinge pictured has an anchor spike, which indicates it is the bottom frame. If you desire depth to your bed, you can get 'stacking' versions that are designed to fit on top of the 'anchors', and you can stack multiple frames to make the bed as deep as you want. The round piece in the center is a cap, which the stacking versions fit snugly into. There are multiple reasons I think the company chose 2x6s...when the beds are full of garden soil, the soil will expand and contract, putting pressure on the boards. The 2x6 will resist warping or snapping and will also allow some ventilation of the raised bed. Also, they are way less expensive than an 8" or 10" board. I stacked one level on top of the anchored making a raised bed that was 12" deep, and once the sod was cleared, it was about 20" deep inside the bed. I put shredded bark around the outside base of the frame to keep the soil in, and it inhibits weeds and further enhances ventilation and drainage.

You can stack them. I have more than 3, but they don't "nest"; they do kind of fit inside each other so yes, I stack them.

Unless you have super high ceilings, 2 will not stack onto one another. When I ordered mine I was under the impression it was low and wide but it is actually quite tall. Putting 2 side by side would work fine though.

i haven't tried to stack these, but they are incredibly sturdy on their own. i imagine that stacking would work well if you have something to make it stable (i can't help you there). i've had this for 2 years now - no rot, no breaking - and it's in the elements of weird winters, torrential downpours, and hot summers of north carolina.

The bed is about 10 inches deep as well as 1/2 inch thick (both are just an approximation). It was my first go at vegetable gardening. I was able to grow 2 varieties of tomatoes, green beans, snap peas, cucumbers, eggplant, cabbage, and basil. Very sturdy construction, this spring will be the second season so we will see how it stood up to this New England winter! Good luck

Actually I believe you can stack as many as needed, there is a cap for each corner if you are done stacking on top. Though each set has feet so you may be able to only have that one set (on bottom) use the feet.

I stacked mine with no difficulty.. The corner posts generally extend just a little past the slats. I just put the next slat layer in the slot and added the next post. Worked just fine.

I am sure lettuces would be fine. I do not think tomato plants would be happy here. Probably not green beans either. The beans would need something to grow up on and in this they would just hang down onto the ground and block access to rows behind them. Not enough room here for tomato root structure and the plants would stick straight out and then that weight would likely pull plants right out of their soil. Top shelf does work for a little taller plant because it can grow straight upward.

Just buy two of the taller 4 by 4 and connect them, this should give you the even height you want. The company sells them in the taller section in the 4 by 4 individually. However, they won't be any taller than the tallest section. Due to the construction of the corner pieces I don't think you can stack them. Not sure you'd want to even if you could, due to the volume and weight of the soil it would take to fill, might bow (or possibly break) the center boards. Which would cause soil to escape with each planting or rain or watering or ect. For example, I have the one in the photo and it required 900 pounds of soil to fill.

not as designed. i suppose you could drill your own holes in the top of one and bottom of another and insert dowels, but i wouldn't trust them to be stable if stacked.

Sorry do not check this e-mail often:) but no they are not stable if stacked on top of each other. Can you do it? sure, but would not recommend it.

You can stack 2 by turning one upside down. More than that is not possible.
