Does the Subpod come assembled? I don’t think I can do it by myself.
Subpod comes flat packed and is easy to assemble. It should take about 2 minutes to assemble. You may like to ask a friend, family member or neighbour for help if you find it difficult :)
You can view the video here on how to assemble your Subpod:

You will be required to put it in a garden bed though, so this will require a bit of manual labour. You will need to decide if you are able to do it by yourself, or if you can ask someone for help. You could post on our Grow Hub to see if anyone can help you in your area:
