Comments regarding The Garden Patch Grow Box

At this time I cannot recommend the growbox, although maybe I could if I ever got my order. I placed my order on May 17. There was a notice (still there) that they are running a week to ten days behind due to Covid. Understandable. Okay, I figured if I could get my boxes in the first part of June it would be fine.

By June 8th my boxes still hadn’t shipped and I submitted an inquiry about them. It’s quite an issue for me as I live at altitude and have a short growing season. Told me I could expect shipping within the next week. Called early morning June 17th, still no shipping. Informed the very nice customer service representative that either they needed to be shipped that day or I needed to cancel my order. As of the 20th, there is no shipping notification, no refund notification, nothing. After contacting them twice, I had no recourse except to file for reimbursement through PayPal - thank goodness I used my PayPay account!

It’s really a shame as I have been considering trying out the grow boxes for several years, but I have seedlings I started in March waiting for growboxes that it seems I will not get in time to be of any use.
