drainage in boxes
I am going to make my wife a large raised bed for her salad plants as she
has trouble bending,but still likes to potter in the garden.This will be very simply,a box on legs.Firstly do I line It with plastic and secondly do I need to drill holes for drainage? As a matter of interest I got the idea from an excellent magazine called Kitchen Garden I have just dicovered. |

As a matter of interest I got the idea from an excellent magazine called Kitchen Garden I have just dicovered. There was an article by Colin Shaw in the Nov 2001 issue of KG magazine which gave more details about the similar thing he constructed ' A Simple Lettuce Table" If out house wasn't such chaos at the moment I'd offer to find the issue and do a scan of the article........ And I see also on the KG website that someone this morning has started a thread about this exact same thing on their web forum. http://www.kitchengarden.co.uk/forum/view.asp?ID=8268 -- Chris French and Helen Johnson, Leeds urg Suppliers and References FAQ: http://www.familyfrench.co.uk/garden/urgfaq/index.html |
