  1. Another good video Thank You! We have four 4X8 raised beds. We also are using mineral tubs for cattle. About fifty of them now. Also my boyfriend started "raised beds" via tractor tires many years ago. One large tractor tire has been producing a great quantity of asparagus for over twenty years. In regards to peppers and corn and so forth. We are sticking to the "traditional" method of gardening. Kind of like planting 200 XXX Chile Plants in a raised bed is simply not going to work for us. Nor would a few hundred corn plants!

  2. I have a bad back and used galvanized roofing panels for my beds. It took a lot of dirt but it's worth not having to bend over

  3. Wow, you have got a bit of every raised bed possible. I have the high metal beds, filled with hugel kultur. So I don't have to bend and my dogs can't get in.

  4. Waist high raised beds aren't just for people who lack the capacity to do all the bending and kneeling associated with low beds or in ground gardening. My mobility is mostly the same as my younger years, but I still fine that it's just more comfortable to work in such a bed, and that higher comfort translates into getting more work done in the waist high format. Planting, harvesting, mulching, and weeding are all much more enjoyable when I don't need to bend or stoop.

  5. My raised beds have no sides. I mix my soil and amend the beds as if they had sides. I have a drainage problem and can't afford "real" raised beds. I have 19 plus a Food Forest. I'm adding a 100×40 planting area and they will be the same kind. Love them!!!!

  6. hi scott πŸ€—
    i grow in wooden raised beds, and plastic pots and buckets. i would like to try metal raised beds. great video. tfs

  7. I have a few raised beds of my own going one designated for my granddaughter to learn .. kiddie pools at the dollar store will make great raised beds if you're on a budget or living in temporary housing or just don't have anywhere else to plant

  8. I have about 12 raised beds and they are all made with the corrugated iron. Three of them are made out of an old corrugated water tank that had a few tiny rusted holes .. not great for a water tank but perfect for three raised beds πŸ™‚

  9. Great timing, I just finished filling the metal modular raised bed that came yesterday and today I picked up a roll of heavy gauge metal flashing at a yard sale to make some round raised beds(I think I may have a problem πŸ˜‚πŸ˜…). I like the vertical logs, that looks pretty neat. Thank you for the great ideas and video!
