Grillin' are we?
Sweetie and I are going to start our fisrt veggie garden soon....I cant wait it's been 15 years since I got to grow some eats...She does flowers every year though I always seem to be the one ammending, mulching and building the beds up...
The plan is
NOT to dig up the existing soil at the planned location out back...(I've broken too many shovel blades diggin there)...but too instead build a large 24" high rectangle out of lumber painted with marine paint then lined with pond felt from the top of the sides allthe way accross the bottom...
When completed a 2" layer of clean sand will be topped with composted soil mixed with mulch and moss which I hope will yield easy to work with food and anchoring for my veggies, as well as soil that will retain lots of moisture.
I'm contemplating burrying black vinyl pipe withlots of holes rigged to a sump with a toiled float valve to thoroughly drought proof.
Any recomendations for type of wood and hardware to hold it together?
Soil mix? (additions to the planned mix or recomendations against any of the ingredients)
