Raised Garden Beds by Susan R. Stoltz
The pro's of raised garden beds outweigh the con's.
Raised beds have many advantages. First they greatly reduce soil compaction. Plant roots need air and with a raised bed you do all your gardening from the path between beds eliminating tromping down the soil as you weed, etc.
Plants can be spaced more closely together in a raised be because you don't need places to step. This increases the productivity per square foot. It also reduces weeding. The risk you run is to crowd your plants. Raised beds tend to grow much larger plants so overcome the urge to really pack them in.
Drainage is easier in a bed built above the ground. The contrary to this is if you live in a very dry climate you may have to water more frequently.
Soil conditions can be controlled with great efficiency in a raised bed and can vary from bed to bed. If the soil in your area of the country is less than desirable it's an easy problem to overcome when you control the sort of dirt that goes into the bed. This holds true with mulch, compost or fertilizer. You can use these products without much waste as they are only being applied where directly needed.
Raised beds are closer to you so there is less bending and gardening can be done on a garden seat or wagon seat. This has great advantage to the elderly or those with limited mobility.
The growing season can be significantly lengthened with beds that are above ground level because they warm up sooner than the ground beneath them. You can also cover them effectively to prevent frost or damage from hail and high winds.
It's also easier to keep pests and weeds out of a raised bed, so if you live in an area with lots of rabbits or voles or gophers you may want to consider this option very carefully.
I've seen lots of raised beds. Some are constructed of pressure treated lumber, rocks, landscape blocks, logs, watering troughs, even kiddie plastic swimming pools. So I guess I'd better decide which medium will achieve the look I'd like for my garden.
Finally, studies have shown that raised beds produce up to 1.5 to 2 times more vegetables and flowers per square foot over ordinary beds. You can have a smaller and more manageable garden that produces more for your table. Since my space is relatively small I find this appealing.
The disadvantages are few. As mentioned above you may have to water with more frequency in a dry climate. And raised beds take more money initially to establish as they must be built as opposed to plowing up a piece of your yard and sticking seeds in the ground.
So, after all is said and done, not much has yet been done. But the decision has been made that raised beds are the way to proceed. Now to plan the layout and design of the landscape. Looks like I'd better start observing how many hours of sun different areas of the property receive.
