Greetings from southern New Hampshire, where I finally completed the fifth and final raised bed in our garden expansion!
I used rough 2” by 8” lumber, two high, with 1/2” hardware cloth stapled to the bottom and filled with sifted compost.
The Boss will start the fertilization and planting tomorrow, when the weather is supposed to break upwards.
I will plumb the beds to tie into zone 4 of our irrigation system and reroute the back (north) fence to encompass the expansion area.
Now, I have two beds to weed, move a couple of cattle panels to provide a large trellis for luffa and birdhouse gourds.
Progress! :)
