I'm digging it in a raised bed that is about 18" above ground level... The
ground under it is pretty steeply sloped because I have the run off drain on
my property. If I put the "deep end" on the low end of the slope, I figure I
can go almost 2 feet deep and still be above "ground level". I figure I'll
only be 1.5' or so below that level at the deepest.. This will give me temp.
stability, hopefully at a bit higher temp. because the upper 2/3's of depth
are actually above the ground level... Does my logic hold water? (pun
intended!) or am I over the limit?
I never really thought about it like that, it certainly sounds
logical... I know at the other end that plants in raised beds are
more susceptible to root damage from freezing, so the other side
should work too...
