I meant to ask, and forgot - what did you use for building the beds? Untreated cedar fencing planks? I read somewhere that they were easier to work with, and reasonably priced (both requirements for me). We need to make some too, and pronto. I got a great deal on some everbearing strawberry plants, and I need to have the beds ready in less than two weeks. Eek.
Also, where did you buy your soil?
As you have probably noticed, I do things backward - like, ordering plants, and then worrying about creating the raised beds. I also ordered a bunch of heirloom seeds, which arrived two weeks ago, but have I started sprouting them inside? Better question, do I even have the peat pots for starting them?
Sigh...I don't know how serious gardeners do it. Honestly. This whole thing is mystifying and overwhelming to me.
