8 'Depth of raised bed planters/ gopher wire

Hi everyone. Its raining, yeah! Time for some planning.

I am thinking of adding a few 8" deep raised beds with gopher wire hardware cloth underneath. The soil underneath is already well ammended. I am wondering at the end of season will it be hard to pull out the plants, since the roots will go down way past the gopher wire?

Do I need the frames to be deeper or is it fairly easy to pull out old plants and turn over soil in shallow beds with gopher wire? Thanks!
