Mounting & Assembly Guide
Building your Eggologic™ vertical garden is easy. Just follow this step-by-step guide and you'll be enjoying your personal green space in no time.
Step 1
If your garden pod arrived assembled, first remove all packaging materials (100% recyclable) and dispose responsibly.
NOTE: A mounting screw for securing the pod to a wood surface is included on the packaging. Make sure to keep this for mounting. 
Disassemble the pod by:
(A) placing your thumbs under the front edge of the top two gray fastening tabs and pulling gently outward until they release the catches on the front shell, then
(B) gently pushing the front shell forward.
Repeat this process for the lower two fastening tabs to fully release the front shell.
Step 2
With the pod now disassembled, place the back (mounting) shell on a flat, vertical wood wall (or Eggologic mounting bracket if purchased) and secure it in place with a handheld screwdriver using the provided mounting screw.
IMPORTANT - Do not use a power screwdriver or power drill for securing the back shell. These tools provide too much force and can result in damage to the mounting feature. Always use a handheld screwdriver and tighten the screw until the mounting is firmly secured.
If securing the pod to a wall made of a material other than wood, please use the appropriate mounting hardware for that specific material (not included).
For placing multiple pods on the same wall or surface, repeat step 2 as needed. Need some inspiration for your wall pattern? Go to our Wall Pattern Guide.
Step 3
All front shells in our pod collection are made to easily snap into place once the Back Shell has been mounted.
For pods that do not have inserts, such as the Trellis Pod, this is the final step.
To secure the front shell, simply align the four (4) fastener openings on the front shell with the gray fastening arms on the mounting shell, gently slide them through, and then press firmly to snap the fasteners into position.
For the Planter & Variety Pod:
A) add soil mix and desired seed(s) or plant(s) to the included Planter Insert

For the Nester Pod:

NOTE: Make sure the entry guard's offset opening is oriented DOWN, not up, as shown in the illustration.
Not sure which entry guard to use? Go to our Illustrated Bird Guide.
B) slide the Nester Insert into the mounted Back Shell
C) align the Nester Shell with the fastening arms on the Back Shell and snap into place
For the Hive Pod:
A) align the Hive Shell with the fastening arms of the Back Shell and snap into place
B) insert clean, dry Bee Tubes into the central cavity, filling it from bottom to top
C) carefully press more tubes into open cavities until all tubes are securely placed, then gently press all inserted tubes against the back wall of the pod
