How to Build a Raised Bed CHEAP and EASY from Fence Board for Planting Tomato 

This channel has inspired me to grow. Today I planted my first seeds. Tomatoes (two varieties) and rocket. So exciting to see the results. Watching the tomato video the other week with the flowerbeds inspired me.

YAAASSS! I hope this video goes viral. Sending lots of positive energy and good vibes!! Ps: Love the title and icon. RU-vid better do its job now.

Absolute perfection is boring for me as well. I'm more of a practical person. I like everything organized, but I also like to enjoy everything I do, so it doesn't become overwhelming or even a burden. Thanks for sharing!. ❤🙏

I’ve been watching your videos thinking “this music is very sergio mendes -ish ” and then this vid solidified my theory

A big long border garden with that beautiful stone wall as a backdrop would be amazing!

Commenting for RU-vid algorithm boost, keep up the good work

Tomatoes are so much fun to grow. I love the smell of their leaves when you brush past them. Looking forward to seeing your tomatoes!

I've been so thankful for your videos especially this season as I finally moved to a home with a south facing yard that's not rocks and mulch like I was renting for 5 years. I did everything in containers and I'm so looking forward to planting directly in the soil and setting free the plants that have been stuck in containers for years. I'm also looking forward to see how the plants from seeds I saved year after year adapt to no longer being confined to containers.

Don’t forget ppl - call 811 before digging- utilities will come out and mark locations of electric,propane,internet etc for free so you don’t hit a line and get a large bill.

A few summers ago I had a rush of enthusiasm and put in a box garden. Each box is 3x3, 9 total on the west end with 2 4x4 and 2 3x3 on the east end with a working area between. I stapled two layers of 30 year weed block to the boxes, flipped them over and arranged them with 12" between each, just enough room to fit cheapie paving stones between for a walkway with more weed block underneath. Then I worked pea gravel in between like grout to secure them and help stop anything that might decide to drop in from setting up home. Then I used t posts and recycled welded wire to surround it all and make it deer and rabbit proof. It looked fantastic! Then I planted using square foot gardening and everything freaked out. It turned into a jungle and the linear geometry was lost. It was difficult harvesting because you couldn't even move around. Growing in it was a huge success.......but it was way too congested. Neglect took hold, and I'm going to refresh that area by removing the boxes to grow out front where I have dead areas from tree removal. Since it's still a protected area I will be splitting it into a dedicated bush bean and strawberry haven.

I'm sure your raised bed design will last a long time. I tried my first front yard garden last year, it was beautiful, and did not disappoint. I'm starting another one this year,but have decided to use sunflowers with my companion plants. 🍃🌻🌿

I didn't realize how late you planted. Nice job! Your garden looks great now in midsummer.

Beautiful soil.

Perfect timing, just got some beds myself.

Your videos are my happy place 😁

I'm enjoying seeing so many new videos. 😊

Over the winter I scored a 4 x 4 cedar raised bed kit for $10, for sale on Facebook. I have it all put together but only about halfway filled with compost. I really wished they had more than one, but I'm pretty happy.

Thanks for sharing 👌💗☕

question, what do u do to avoid mole animals? 🤔im agraid to grow veggies on my yard since I'd heard some neightbourds complain about it🥺

Wow loads of videos I've got to catch up on keep up good work ;-)

Base on my observation, the area closest to the retaining wall will stay moist the longest.

I'm a sucker for your new songs :D

Where the Hell do I get your music??!! I really love it :)

I enjoy when you put clips of your songs in your videos :) Does this one, promise land, have Portuguese in it? I'm not familiar with the sound of the language but I think i remember you saying in an older video & in the ancestry video that you are of Brazilian decent? :) Anyway, it's beautiful! I have a raised bed in my back yard, i didnt get to use it last year because although we dont have groundhogs, we have raccoons & it was using my garden as a latrine :( it really freaked me out because of how contagious the parasites are etc so I was afraid to use the soil...i still am to be honest lol so i think i'll dig out the soil & make use of it in the compost or the soil we will be spreading grass seed in..i hope he doesnt come back this year! The raised bed is also a bit too deep so i think i'm going to cut one of the boards off & just move it over to run parallel with the one already there (36 inches away was our number too) & then i want to put like an archway of wire fencing between the 2 to do some horizontal growing for beans, cukes etc. :) .....also, i am trying to actively engage with likes & comments to each of your videos & share every few to my facebook page too, to help your youtube algorithm :)

are you afraid of tics? or do you just check every day?

Since I am that early 😅😅..hope you'll answer me ...just a question out of curiosity...Do you live all alone in your house?? I know its a silly question 😅😅😅

you might want to paint your gazebo like beds so they last longer!

I really like the Woodglut plans.

Woo I'm early!🌹🌷🌹🌷🌹
