Hi, I experiemented with a couple of tomatoes, a cucumber and a couple of pepper plants last year (in only one raised bed) and this year I went a bit bigger and made 4 raised beds, some pots and created 4 elevated beds for strawberries. All of the plants are from seeds except the small one where I have onions and spinach.

They look happy and I have only lost one cucumber plant, one I decided not to plant (I already have three and thought it would be too much) and I still have two tomatoes left to plant in garden. I have beefsteak tomatoes in pots (almost 8 small saplings, I plan to move them in their individual pots), tons of flowers and coraiander.

I have now pepper, capsicum and aubergine plants as well in the beds and now installing an irrigation system with timer function.

In one corner I have a berry garden with black and raspberries and in three large pots I have blueberries and in the middle I have a fig tree in a large pot and some flowering plants around them.

Moreover I am also experimenting with a Pakistani Red Mullberry (which I bought from Germany), at this moment it's only a few cm tall. You can see that in the second picture (Orange Pot)

I am wondering if I should make a barrier between the grass side of the garden and my beds, and should I use gravel or mulch for that? On both edges of the garde I have gravel, you might see a strip of gravel already behind the beds.
