Jack Russell is retired and likes [url=http://www.maximoupgrade.com/hot.php]hollister france[/url] pottering in his herb and vegetable garden. He is not an expert but is building a raised bed garden. Jack has found a lot of helpful information [url=http://www.getconversational.com]hollister france[/url] at You can also sign up for a free newsletter and a free copy of an interesting 100 year old book on growing herbs.
Gardeners are constantly remind that a raised garden bed is the best [url=http://www.jordanpascherofficiel.com]air jordan[/url] thing. But they don't know how to build a raised garden bed. Actually, building one is simple, if not easy! It's a job, but ultimately it will yield many dividends in the beauty and health of flowers, vegetables, herbs and other plants. Raised beds can be built on areas with poor drainage and the seeds won't wash out during a hard rain. Also, a raised bed retains heat better than a bed that is level with the ground, because it's more [url=http://www.vivid-host.com/barbour.htm]barbour uk[/url] exposed to sunlight. Soil in a raised bed is also easier to irrigate and easier to weed. Harvesting is also easier from a raised bed.
The best times to build a raised bed are fall, spring and late summer. This helps crops withstand rainy periods and allows cold weather vegetables like kale, Brussels sprouts, broccoli and spinach to keep flourishing after a frost.
Some people put their raised beds in a frame. This allows the gardener to really control the quality of the soil [url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/peuterey.php]peuterey outlet[/url] that's in the bed. Frames are also attractive and make convenient places [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] for the gardener to sit, but they're truly a task to build. They require lumber, nails and brackets. Fortunately, raised beds can also be made without frames.
The gardener should first find a place where they want to put their raised bed. They should watch for a period of time to see how much sun, wind and rain this area gets. Then, when they've chosen the spot, they should work the soil by [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin[/url] hand or with a tiller down to at least six or eight inches, till the soil is loose. [url=http://www.getconversational.com]hollister pas cher[/url] Then, they should use stakes and string to mark off the length and width of the bed. Some people like the beds about 15 or 16 inches wide, which would be about the width of their rake. The walkways between the beds might be about 18 to 20 inches wide.
The gardener should then stand at the top of a walkway and pull soil from the next walkway and build up the bed with the rake. They should rake [url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/woolrich.php]woolrich parka[/url] up about four to six inches of soil.
They should stay in the walkway and bring up soil all the way down the row. Then, they should go to the other side of the bed and repeat. They should amend the soil with compost or fertilizer
After that, they can smooth out the top of the bed with the back of the rake till it's level.
When the seedbed is smoothed out, the gardener is ready to plant.
The gardener can also use a tiller to make raised beds. The area should be [url=http://www.davidhabchy.com]barbour outlet[/url] tilled at least twice, and again, should go down from six to eight inches into the soil. A hilling attachment can be added to the tiller. The gardener should stand on [url=http://www.vivid-host.com/barbour.htm]www.vivid-host.com/barbour.htm[/url] one end of a walkway, aim for the stake at the other end [url=http://www.thehygienerevolution.com/barbour.php]barbour[/url] of the garden and work the tiller straight toward it. This will keep the bed straight.
After the soil has been hilled up, the gardener can smooth the tops with the rake, then toss some fertilizer over the area.
