Elevated raised bed experiment

txweekendchef

Went a little overboard making an herb garden.

I started with the idea of making a raised bed, but then I started thinking about all that bending down to work on a raised bed garden (I am 6'4",) so I decided to elevate the bed.

Before I new it I ended up with this.

Features include an elevated bed, screened enclosure and a solar powered watering system.

I also wrote a hopefully funny story about making this thing here.

Everything is growing great, but have been told I might be over-watering with the solar powered watering system. So I am going to try cutting back the water and see how they do in the 106ú temps projected for next week here in Fort Worth.
