Beautiful garden! Love your videos. Slowly converting my yard from grass to garden beds. You are an inspiration. Thank you!

Its a lot of work but so rewarding. Just take it piece by piece and have patience and understanding with yourself. You can do it!

Cedar is one of the types of wood to not use in a hugelkultur bed for the fact that they're resistant to rot and take a very long time to break down. It makes sense Cedar would be a great wood to use for purposes of longevity, like you did. Beautiful beds!

My solution for raised...and I mean raised garden beds are stock tanks. My biggest stock tanks I have are 10' L x 2'W x 2'D. My other stock tanks range in sizes from 3', 4' and 6' L and have the same height and depth as my 10' tanks. I got the idea 3 years ago and have LOVED them...NO BENDING over at all. We have them all on cement blocks and all come almost to my waist. NO MORE backaches or bending over!

@@soniahofmann4969 Growing edible foods in public places, but specifically foods that only you will recognize as food.. or that only you know where it is planted. Perennials, medicinal plants etc. Some people do it in urban areas, but I’m more interested in doing it in swamp-land, abandoned lots, and dense thorny areas of the forest. Create a secret pathway into the middle of the thicket, and create a secret little 7’x7’ oasis in the wilderness

@TheUrbanHarvest 2 жыл бұрын

I know, I'm in love with them! Just keep looking out the window and smiling : ) I did the C/U shapes because they maximize space - think key hole garden. And we wanted something fun/unique and flowing so that it functioned well and looked good. It is 6 of their large beds and 2 of the small. They have all different ways to arrange them and even have stacking kits.

@@bjbrown6884 Agreed, although nothing close to meeting needs there is almost always a way to grow food even in high rises. You can grow microgreens in as little as 5 inches of space on a sunny window sill. There are tower gardens for balconies. We just have to get creative!!!

5:52 Pressure treated wood hasn't used toxic chemicals in over twenty years. Unless you're using incredibly old lumber (in which case I'd wonder if there are any chemicals left for the soil to absorb anyway), it shouldn't do any harm to your soil or plants.

Its 2x6 cedar. They gave good instructions on how to do the wood in the assembly book. My wood for the entire garden was almost $900. Essentially 7 of the large beds.

The metal raised beds make a lot of sense for durability, but don't they get too hot in the sun for the plants? I'm in Broward county FL.

@TheUrbanHarvest Жыл бұрын

Not really, they are not in direct sun because of the wooden cover on the top. It blocks direct light onto the panels on the side so they really don't get that hot actually

@wearetherevolutionnow2529 2 жыл бұрын

So do they send the team out with the price of the raised bed or did you hire extra help to do the work for you? Most people can't afford to hire outside help. How can you tell us the difficulty putting them together when you didn't do it yourself. I'm sure it looked easy watching others do it. Lastly, did you get paid to promote this product? Because why else would you replace beds in such a failing economy when the old worked fine this whole time
