Re: I'm already thinking about my raised beds
      30/12/2008 12:05

MT - the answer to space in a bed is to buy a super kingsize bed like we have - space for a couple more between us now...

Seriously though...

I have two new raised veggie beds waiting to be used for the first time this spring so I would be very interested in tips and exchanging ideas. I have Carol Klein's Grow Your Own Veg and Alys Fowler's Thrifty Gardener but I'm still baffled by some things. Will you be growing your own seedlings or waiting and planting plugs?

What were you successful with last year? Two years ago I lost everything to the wet summer and slugs - potatoes, runner beans, tomatoes, the lot - and it was very dispiriting but I am determined to try again...
