Raised Garden Beds
Hi, hope someone can help. I am going to make some raised garden beds.
I did a search on this group and did not get any hits. I have three questions I hope someone can help me with. First, is there any reason to prefer cedar over redwood? I notice that most commercial wooden raised beds are cedar. Second, is it necessary or helpful to seal the wood somehow, particularly the ends? Third, is it necessary or helpful to lay down a few inches of gravel on the bottom for drainage? Some things I have read say yes, but others seem to say you should not so that plants with deep roots can get down to the native soil if they need to. Thanks in advance for your advice! Sanford. |
