would this be enough for about 90 square feet of veggies?

A virtually identical product I've used says on it use 8 lbs per 100 square feet, so this would be more than twice what you need for 90 sq ft.

There are not enough joiners (the blocks you slide the boards into) to do so. There are 6 total. If you can find more of these by either purchasing them or making them then yes, but the beds will be more shallow and you will not be able to plant certain vegetables.

Gosh, I wish I could tell you. I have two and love them. Having two lets me cook compost in one, but continue to add material to the other. I recently emptied one of mine into my new veggie garden bed and it spread over an area about 5ft X 6ft at around 2 to 3 inches deep. I suppose there's a math equation that could figure out the gallons from those figures.

I bought 2 of these boxes. We planted a variety of herbs in one, and mums in another. Both are growing well.But I don't know how veggies would do. Sorry.

Yes it can work very well with big and long vegetables. there's no container holding the vegs and it actually works better if the veg is thicker.

90 inches equates to 7.5 feet, so I would say no. I would look for 120 inch round to give you plenty of coverage.

I would try that yes. If it didn't coat thick enough maybe I'd add a few Chia seeds ground up too. : ) made a veggie meatloaf using it and it was awesome! Tofu scrambles are super with the Veg yummy!

Yes it would, used this to fence my garden and used the trimmings to make a trellis system for my snow peas and cucumbers

I used about 10 bags of 2 cubic feet. If you could find some cheap (but clean, uncontaminated) fill dirt, you could use less good quality soil on top.

You could. It is sturdy enough. But I feel it is too tall and not wide enough for cucumbers. I use it for pole beans.

Sure but it will just get cut up a bit more. We use it for cutting up vegetables and then using as a serving dish.

My experience is, this is exactly what you're looking for. I am very happy with this kit. I have had excellent results with it and I too plan to grow herbs and vegetables year-round with it. I have veggies going right now and the tomato's caused me to shirk the aluminum frame and hang the lamp from a shelf (above) so I could get enough height between it and the tomato's. I have everything growing in a closet and it's perfect. I will probably buy another kit to take advantage of a second (higher) shelf (for the herbs). I did a lot of looking around and this whole kit is cheaper than just buying a light and bulb. On the tech side, seemingly, the light bulbs give off the correct spectrum of light as my veggies look so healthy and are growing fast. I have it on a timer so they get their 'rest'. Good luck!

Yes a cup of veggies is fine. I can usually fit one to two cups of broccoli florets in the small steamer. This steamer has really held up! I have used nearly every day for six months and shows no wear and tear

Big enough.. If you need a bigger pot you're gonna have to build a fire.. I cook 5 lb pot roasts in mine and still have plenty of room for vegetables

I'd get a few. You could do two 2.5 gallons with this, maybe 3. It isn't a supersoil, but it takes next to nothing to fertilize during veg. I gave very light nutes twice in a month and a half. Not even sure I needed that.

One container should be more than enough. It covers from 80-100 square feet.
