Raised Beds

As with containers and hanging baskets, raised beds are generally easier to look after and keep weed free throughout the growing season. When designing raised beds keep in mind their size.  Ideally you should be able to tend your vegetables without having to step onto the beds.  This way you can be sure not to damage any of your precious plants and you will also not have to concern yourself with ensuring your soil does not become compacted, saving hours of digging.

In order to achieve the optimum growing conditions try combining with organic Farmyard Manure and organic Vegetable Growing Compost with specially selected top soil which is sterilised for healthy growth. Having filled your beds with a mixture of growing media it’s a good idea to mix in some Growmore or organic Chicken Manure pellets to add some extra nutrients and get your veg off to a flying start.
