Thank you for this video. I am starting off growing my own vegetables and herbs, following this video just built my own raised bed. I didn't have to use any preservative on the pegs as the timber was pre-treated. It takes a tonne of compost, I had to use so many bags to nearly fill it.
Hi Lauren, please see here: bit.ly/3p1U2yR for our range of Decking Boards which you can cut down to a size that suits your project. I hope that helps!
I was just thinking the same thing. I'm planning to make some new beds in a month. Will layer with cardboard, compost, and a few inches of chopped leaves. I'm expecting loose enough soil for planting next spring. And, yes, trying to go to "no dig" in all my gardens.
@@myjunkmail007 I just attach landscape fabric to the bottom of the frame and fill it up with compost and soil. Never worry about weeds or grass coming through
Thanks for the video.. But how about weed...... I started my garden same way but every year I have lots of weed to pull out .. Any suggestion to control weeds..
I covered my garden raised bed with plastic s best although winter and spring And no weed, nice and clean in May to begin my season. I live in Connecticut U SA
As a lover of woodwork there is nothing more satisfying to me than seeing a close up of a screw being perfectly drilled into wood!😁😁😁
If you line it with cardboard you don’t need to remove the turf. Anything below the cardboard will eventually mulch down.

How is it going?
Why am Watching this at 2:46am. I don't even have a garden...🤷🏻♂️
Just think, when you do get a garden, you'll think back to this moment and you'll know exactly what to do 🙌🌱
I could easily live without a garden. M.
Thank you for this amazing video tips on preparing my bed and soil for planting.
Thanks for sharing this, I’ll be making a start on mine in a few weeks time
Thanks for the vid. We just made a couple in just 2 hours and they look great!
Hi, great demonstration on how to build raised beds. Can you please let me know exactly what material you used for the raised bed?
Hi there, you will find all materials and tools used at the end of the video 5:42. I hope this helps 😊
What sort and size of boards did u use to made the raised bed?
Many thanks for the tips. Will try this. Hope this method of turf removing works on heavily compacted clay soil too.
Did it work with clay soil?
Great informative vid! Thank you 🙏🏼
Glad it was helpful!

How safe is it to use treated wood for growing veg? Wouldn’t there be issues with it leaching?
Yes don’t listen to anyone or the gov. Use natural untreated wood
@@realnpc3763 By default, we shouldn't listen to you either, then.
You don’t need to remove turf, see Charles Dowding no dig garden

that's right, under such a layer everything will rot, and microorganisms and worms will do their job
Thanks this helped out alot
We're so happy to hear it helped! 😊
I have a slope. How do I do this on a slope?
Very easy to make a raised bed get four books and place under each leg
Somebody just had to like this. There ya go..
@@johnbarrett6669 Wondered what he was on about for 10 seconds 😂
Would have liked to see the links of all the materials you used, including any tools.
Don’t be so damn lazy and go find your own stuff. Jesus. You ppl want everything done for you.
5:41 , 5:42 and 5:43 has the lists.
What dimensions are those boards? 6" x 1" maybe?

If you watch the beginning without sound the guy looks incredibly angry with you … I’m scared
Don't worry! They're a gentle giant 😄

Anyone know what kind of plant with yellow flower in the landscape?
Looks like an Acasia (wattle).
It’s 100% a kerria japonica “pleniflora.” Grows like mad, flowers for ages.
