Welcome to the forum.

Your box being level is only important when you are using EB's automatic watering system.

Welcome to the forum.

Your box being level is only important when you are using EB's automatic watering system.

I would add the suggestion to place the box so the wicking corners are on the down side of the slope as long as it's not a steep one. This will give you the maximum fill before overflowing. Your tomatoes will appreciate this when summer temps peak.
