Well, they're in, 9 of them. Now we'll see what happens.
Built an above ground planting area using timbers that I picked up on the side of the road. Local carpenter was re-building a deck that was removed by one of the ocean storms last winter. Some nice 2x6 and 2x8 planks, 4 - 5 feet long. He has no place to store them, so they go to the dump. Not these, plus 4x4 and 6x6 blocking, 4x4 posts, etc., etc.
Got enough wood stove fire wood cut and split from the same re-build. Even some nice 1/2 inch plywood.
I'm using 100% leaf mold as 'dirt'. Got another raised bed with it in it, the plants are going wild in it, they love it and it retains moisture. It, too, was free.
