Rinske's tip
Start with two or three beds. You can always add more, and the beds fit together.

Vegetables on a few square metres.
On a two-metre balcony you grow more than you think: lettuce, herbs, radishes, a cherry tomato and climbing beans along the railing. Rinske measures the space, looks at sun and wind and makes narrow planters that fit. Light enough for a balcony floor, with a water reservoir underneath.
- Planters that fit your balcony exactly
- Mindful of weight and wind
- Water reservoir underneath
- Herbs, lettuce and tomato
On the packet
- Spacefrom 2 m² of balcony

Rinske's tip
A south-facing balcony gets hot. Then go for tomato, pepper and herbs, and put lettuce in the shade.
