Choosing The Best Materials for My Raised Garden Bed System

Choosing the right building materials for a raised garden bed system can mean researching like me. Moreover, most raised beds are made for wood materials and need replacement every few years. Likewise, many need reworking seasonally. Some people, however, prefer cement blocks for their relatively low cost although they do contain fly ash.

Cement blocks are a good method for building a raised garden for their longevity, but their disadvantage is taking up extra space. Although, in smaller lots, this extra planting area can be utilized. Depending on the block size either 6” or 8” an entire square foot multiplied by the length of the garden can be wasted versus using wood. But wood can also be harmful to plants.

Thank goodness I found this great concrete raised garden bed method called “The Green Box.” Because of this method, I have a great long-lasting raised garden bed. Moreover, this product is amazing and the space savings is phenomenal.

In my garden space of sixteen feet by thirty-two feet, I’ve built two extra garden beds. Furthermore, this is great because I can yield more produce in two three-foot by sixteen-foot planting areas. A massive one-third (1/3) extra space versus using block.

Raised Bed Gardening’s Big Benefits

So What Are The Benefits of Raised Bed Gardening?

Would you enjoy a garden of fresh flowers or vegetables? Did you know gardens really are a thing of beauty if done right and maintained properly? Many of us would just go and dig the dirt and plant whatever our hearts desire. But, what if maybe there was a better way to garden? I’m going to go over some of the benefits of having a raised bed gardening.

Let’s begin with what exactly is a raised garden bed? A raised garden bed is a specific type of gardening where the soil is added to 3 to 4-foot-wide or larger beds that can be any length. The benefits of a raised garden bed for starters are plants can breathe better, because the soil is not so compact. Because roots need lots of air to breathe, raised garden beds make sense.

When gardening the traditional way, almost always, at some point you must step into the garden to do something. Since stepping into the garden causes the soil to compact, which causes less moisture and oxygen to make it to the roots. You will not have this problem with a raised garden.

Another benefit is placing the plants closer together simply because you no longer need to step into the garden. As you may notice most traditional gardens the plants are spaced out, this is so a person can have room to move around in the garden when doing work.

Additionally, raised garden beds remedy the problem of any excess moisture because the water has a place to run off. Once again this will help your plants to breathe better. It is also good for gardeners who may have back problems.

Adding ingredients to your garden is easier too. Your gardening ingredients such as fertilizer, compost, and soil go in with ease. It has also been statistically proven raised gardens produce twice the flowers and vegetables that traditional gardens. Raised gardens are becoming more and more popular.

In summary, the benefits are endless to having these types of gardens. It not only makes your garden more plentiful, but it also makes it easier to work on it.
