Material for raised bed
I am thinking of using raised beds for my garden this year, I would like to
put several in before the start of the growing season. My question is what to make them out of? 1. I could use untreated lumber, but then I need a way of preserving them. Any thoughts or ideas on this? Are there non-toxic paints or stains I can use? 2. I could use treated lumber, I think the newer kinds are arsenic free. Are there chemicals in this kind of wood that may leech into the soil? 3. What about that artificial wood decking material that I see at Lowe's and Home Depot? Would be expensive, but wouldn't last a long time? |
