Behind the design
“Getting a small amount of water to drip consistently is surprisingly hard! The "aha!" moment was leaving the pushpins in the tubing. That made it easy to adjust the size of the drip hole.”- The KiwiCo Product Design team
By the numbers
Drip valves tested: 8
Tubing used: 10 meters
Water spills: too many to count
Reviews
He had so much fun, he particularly loved watching the soil 'grow'. It all looks wonderful, and I've helped him carefully place the entire contraption under one of our grow lights. Hopefully the seeds pop! If they do, this will have been the best of all the crates we've ever had.
Straight forward and great experience with kids! Can’t wait to see our plants grow!!!!
The project is good for the most part but the drips fail from time to time.
