Currently with cardboard layered over the soil to prevent weed growth. Just built the raised bed for my pepper plants. Thinking of pots for the rest and maybe a sitting area with a small coffee table. Pebble? Paver? Thanks!

    how about treated wood pallets so that way it would be waterproof and bug free

    I have pea gravel in mine, which I find enjoyable to walk through barefoot when it’s nice a toasty in there 🙂

    Landscape fabric would be an affordable and easy choice, but for a more aesthetic choice I’d recommend pea gravel. You’d definitely need to put down a liner more long lasting than cardboard underneath the gravel though.

    Another layer or 2 of cardboard for weed suppression and wood chips.

    I like 1/4-10 gravel. It’s the aggregate for asphalt.

    A layer of some kind of barrier that allows water to flow through and a few inches of 1/2” gravel on top is what I did.
