Thanks for the advice.

I have now ordered some untreated wood and will construct another
planter. Does anyone know what I can treat the wood with, that will not
harm my veg?

Richard,
Your best bet is to use redwood. It naturally resists rot and
insects and will not harm your vegetables. It is pricy, though.
Thanks for that. I've tried to get hold of redwood, such as western red cedar, but nobody seems to stock it in Wales.
