That’s a good tip on how to strain the rocks out of the dirt

Had a home with a similar retaining wall with dirt piled up against the fence when I bought it. the wood fence was completely rotted away from the top of the dirt on down.

[@Joe-qw6il]

Good job but myself, I would’ve laid them on a 2-3” compacted layer of DG ta make sure they don’t become uneven when it rains

[@NumberDZ]

Great tip.
My retaining wall looks exactly the same as the first day, it has been exposed to heavy rain and snow, so far so good 👍

[@tldrttyl]

Looks great! Would you recommend backfilling with gravel or does the dirt drain fine by itself?

[@NumberDZ]

I backfilled with dirt and haven’t had any issues, it’s recommended to put about 10 - 12 inches of gravel against the blocks but I didn’t put any and no problems whatsoever.
Also depends on where you live, if you get a lot of rain you might want to consider putting some gravel.

[@tldrttyl]

@@NumberDZ Great tips, and thank you!

[@whyareyousopoor2478]

so each block should end up in the middle of the seam ? when layering it?

[@NumberDZ]

Yes, otherwise it will look weird, and this is how they are designed to go, the strength relays on the way that they are put.

[@jeremywhitten7977]

So 4 rows high. Is that a little under 1.5 foot tall? Are the 4” H blocks?

[@jeremywhitten7977]

How many did you use 160-180?

[@stockey]

You didn't glue them for more strength ?

[@NumberDZ]

Only the top layer, the other layers don’t need it

[@barnabyhitzig486]

So, no need to set that in concrete?

[@NumberDZ]

No, as long as the dirt is solid enough you won’t have any problems.
