[zihadhosenjm40]

The border for the beds can be woven from fresh branches or laid out from stones.

You can even use straw. It is tied into small bundles, which are connected to each other with wire. It simply cannot be cheaper, and it holds water and temperature well. The only downside of this option is that such a fence will serve for a maximum of two seasons, but more likely - one. But then it can be used as one of the layers.


Bulk beds
There are high beds without a fence: the so-called croatia mobile database beds. The soil in them is piled up in the form of hills.

Bulk beds

To improve drainage, branches are placed inside such a bed. To reduce the height of the bed (for example, for tomatoes), it is deepened a little, throwing the soil to the side. After laying the branches, it is filled from above, often there is a need for additionally imported soil. If it is not possible to choose the inter-rows deeply.

Internal structure of bulk beds

The disadvantage of this type of garden: when watering and during rains, the top layer of soil is washed away. That is why they started making boxes - to avoid soil washing away.

Layers of raised beds
Making the frame is only a small part of the work. You also need to fill the resulting box. It should be said right away that the thickness of the layers depends on the height of the bed you have chosen, so if any values ​​are given, then only approximately. In addition to the size of the bed, the thickness of the layer, for example, the fertile one, is affected by the choice of plants: for some, 5 cm will be enough, while for others, much more is needed.
