My Plan to fill the new raised-raised beds...looking for comments

Annie · May 2, 2012

Your raised beds look great, did you use concrete blocks? I may do that next year if I survive this year. I used whiskey barrels because it is so hard to weed. I mixed rose soil, mushroom compost,mulched leaves and rabbit manure. So far everything is growing well except the trouble with the early blight on a couple of plants. I fertilize every two weeks with a tomato fertilizer half strength and I have loads of tomatoes. I really like your raised beds. There is a place about a mile from me have built about 15 of them in the shape of a cross. They are growing vegetables for a food bank and it looks great. Annie
