Welcome to Grid Gardening

So here's the thing. I live in Christchurch, New Zealand, and I want to try Square Foot Gardening, but we use the metric system here. No square feet for me! But I'm going to use the same concepts anyway and just convert my grid to slightly different measurements :)

The concepts of Square Foot Gardening are simple:

• build above-ground containers
• fill them with a special soil mix
• create a grid on top, breaking each container into one-foot-square mini plots
• fill each mini plot with as many plants as it can support

Sounds simple, doesn't it?
