Wooden Raised Bed - How to Use
Setting up beds
- Choose location - A sunny, sheltered site
- Build beds - As per instructions
- Sections slot into each other for easy setup
- Ensure beds are level
- If positioning on a patio or hard surface, place a membrane under bed
Preparing bed for sowing
- If positioned on garden soil, it is best to dig over the soil to increase root growing space
- Add a mix of garden soil, well rotted farm yard manure & multi purpose compost
- Mix well, compact lightly & level with a rake
Sowing seeds
- Seeds can be started indoors & transplanted out in mid to late March (See Easy Vegetable Starter Kit)
- Alternatively you can sow most seeds direct into the raised beds from mid March onwards
- We would recommend placing a cloche over the soil 3 weeks prior to sowing - to warm up soil
- Lightly wet soil
- Sow seeds as per individual requirements - regarding depth / density & spacing
- Cover over seeds
- Ensure that soil is moist at all times - watering twice a week up to every day in the Summer months
Note: We don't ship plants on Fridays due to the extended period they would remain without light & water
