Good Mix for New Raised Beds in South TX?

lapk78 · July 21, 2019

Hi All, if there is a thread already discussing this please feel free to direct me there. If not, the beds are 4'x4'x15". Just purchased and assembled them. Thanks in advance for any input!

Anybody?

Yes there is, and I appologize for not knowing how to link.

My best advice, regardless of location, is to avoid bagged product in favor of aged manure from a trusted source and scrap organic materials on site, supplemented with bulk garden mixes from a quality local nursery.

I hope someone comes along shortly to point you to the post with greater detail.

Yes, thank you, I am aware. But as a raised bed is not considered a "container" I thought that it could be the case that people with input to offer in this General Discussion board might not visit the Container board to see my question. Thanks again for your input. I'll hopefully be filling the beds sometime soon.
