Raised beds are designed to allow plant roots to access soil nutrients below ground level, and can be built without a frame, mounding the soil 6 to 8 inches high, and flattening the top. These beds are useful for protecting sensitive or young plants from weeds and pests, and making crop rotation easier. A small netting structure can be built to create a fantastic environment for growing vegetables from seed.
Raised beds are a great choice for those with limited space, soil, or sunlight restrictions. They provide good drainage, protection from weeds and pests, and well-aerated soil. To create a raised garden bed, make the lengths and widths shorter or wider for the second level, and use a small ‘V’ instead of a large dot for measurement marks.
To create a DIY netting for raised garden beds, measure and cut PVC pipe into even lengths, long enough to form an arch over the vegetable bed. Pipes and connectors form the frame of the structure, ensuring durability and stability. These pipes are fixed onto the raised garden bed’s wooden boxes.
In summary, raised beds are a versatile and cost-effective solution for growing plants, providing good drainage, protection from weeds and pests, and well-aerated soil.
