I have raised beds also. They are great for removing
standing water and also for conserving water in a drought.
They make tending the plants and crop rotation easy too.


Is this why some plants (cuces, zuccini) request planting in hills??


No, that's different and it doesn't mean 'hills' either. It
just means 'plant a few seeds together', AFAIK.

I don't know why that expression originated. I think it's
very misleading. Very.
