Raised bed

I built my raised bed today with plastic deck boards and stainless steel screws. The boards are guaranteed for 25 years and they were not much more than cedar and they will never rot. I got them at Lowes. Last year I grew grape tomatoes in flower boxes and cucumbers and peppers in 12" clay pots. They did great but I want to grow a lot more vegetables and herbs this year so I finally built a 4' x 8' x 6" raised bed and I will be doing it SFG style. I can't wait to get my seeds planted. Very Happy
