How to build a raised bed

in #gardening7 years ago

Hi again!
In this blog I will teach you how to build a raised bed for your plants.
You need:

Four planks of wood (any measurement but say about 6 inches tall). I recycled some old wood pallets.
Screws (lots and lots of screws)
Four blocks of 60mm square (about 6 inches tall)

Method:

  1. Cut the planks so they fit in the shape of a square then drill them together.
  2. Now drill the blocks into place in the corners.

Your raised bed should look something like this:

Now you want to choose a place to put it in your garden.

Here is what I do for a healthy soil:

  1. Turn the earth over so it's even
  2. Now sprinkle some fish blood and bone and chicken manure pellets on the soil
  3. Next spread some farmyard manure on top
  4. Finally, spread some multipurpose compost on top

Your raised bed is ready for you to plant your plants.

I wish you all the best.
