patiogro - a greener way to grow
I was wondering if anyone had bought one of these patiogro sets. It is a bit expensive, but I've been asked for christmas pressie ideas, and wondered if this would be worthwhile. Growing space is really limited for me, but...
Any thoughts on the following:-
Would the trays be deep enough, large enough, to get a decent crop?
Would they dry out too quickly? (could use water retaining crystals I suppose)
Would it be worthwhile getting the cover?
Would the bottom shelf be a good idea, although it does cut out half the growing space, and puts the cost up even higher.
Only thing is, the flyer that was in a mag says order by 30/11 to get the freebies, and the website says 15/11, so whichever way I need to make a decision as soon as possible, so any opinions/experiences welcomed.

I was thinking copper tape around the legs would deter slugs.
