Our ultimate starter selection to get your GIY journey really started

This large sized GROWBox is our ultimate starter box for the beginner GIYer who really wants to get stuck in. This is a box full of possibility – imagine yourself tucking in to bountiful tomatoes, nutritious beetroot, crunchy carrots, sweet garden peas and delicious oriental salad leaves. But before you get there, you’ve got to grow them.

Our accompanying online course - the Ultimate Starter Course is available for FREE when you sign up to our newsletter (current subscribers will receive a discount code via a newsletter).

What’s in the GROWBox?
Where to grow them:

You might have a 2 acre field, or a tiny apartment, a suburban back garden or allotment. Most veg (with the exception of the carrots) benefit from being started off in a smaller pot or tray and then transplanted when they get a little bigger. We recommend sowing the seeds on a windowsill inside your house or apartment to start. When the seedlings get a little bigger, we will be moving them in to bigger pots to grow them either inside or outside on your balcony, terrace, patio or veg patch.

We loved the Grow Box. Planting was fun and most vegetables worked out well - except for the beetroot. The tomatoes and the courgettes are growing fantastically. The peas grew brilliantly too but we put them out in early April and they stopped growing and then were eaten totally by snails. We then put one of the courgette plants out and it was eaten by snails. We put two pots of the tomatoes out on the terrace and a strange little fly - looked like fruit fly infested its stem. We will keep the rest of the tomatoes indoors for the summer.

The starter grow box is brilliant for a first time grower, the small guide book included is great and makes it easy to understand what to do with each pack of seeds and when to plant.. Excited to see what it produces

Great product, bought it for my husband for our anniversary and it’s gone completely to his head and taken over our kitchen as you can see! Already harvested some of the greens and some lovely looking peas and tomatoes coming on now. A great starting point for anyone with an interest in growing their own veg

Ordered the GIY kit as part of a present for a lockdown wedding with honeymoon spent at home. The couple absolutely loved it and they're looking forward to getting out to plant their next set of seeds.

I got a kit for my dad for Christmas. He's always been an excellent gardener & takes pride in it but has never gotten around to growing his own veg/herbs etc. He's delighted with the kit & can't wait to start planting. Something to keep him busy during the lockdown.

Really enjoying getting the kids involved in growing. I'm a complete newbie to growing but really enjoying all your videos on YouTube and excited to see what else we can grow

Suzanne B.

First-time vegetable gardener with black thumbs! An intimidating venture made easier with the help of the GrowBox and all it's little wonders. A lovely experience learning something new and giving me a new appreciation of growing my own food. I enjoyed the process and am looking forward to next summer applying all of the knowledge I have gained this far!

Aidan D.

Arrived very quickly. There is lots of variety in planting and good clear instructions. Eco packaging and pots lovely too!

It was a present for a friend and she had great fun sowing things with her grandchildren.... I am looking forward to visiting to see her veggie patch , thanks to GIY

Angela B.

Great box of goodies. We have planned the seeds and await the tomatoes, radishes and peas to come soon. Really handy to have all the stuff come together and the seaweed fertiliser looks really interesting.

Kathleen H.

A lovely Father's Day gift! Great variety of seeds, the recipient is looking forward to many happy hours in the garden.

I bought both the large and kids grow boxes-both fab!! Amazing selection in both and so easy to grow. Unfortunately I can’t include a photo as you greenhouse blew over yesterday and destroyed everything :( However because everything was so easy to grow I look forward to starting again. Would definitely recommend! Also delivery was so quick! Keep up the good work :)

Purchased as a present for my Mother who is a keen gardener and wants to know more about GIY. She fell in love with Grow, Cook Eat on RTE and hence the surprise pressie in the post for her. Once she is back from her hols she intends to get stuck in and become a GIYer! :)
