Anybody got any information on the new formulation of pressure treated
wood that is made without arsenic?
something else, at Lowes they're advised that they now have to
"rotate" the lumber, as the new lumber lasts about 4 months. 4
months?? Well apparently the process also has a mold inhibitor and
you have to rinse the wood off if it wears off. I asked during the
film if this meant the wood "wore out quicker" and was told no, and
the new coating was more golden and aged better, it just had to do
with the mold inhibitor. Much safer for raised beds with food plants
and children on play equipment.
