6 AnswersDo It Yourself (DIY)9 years agoOpinions for a raised bed for vegetables for next season?
The bed is on a concrete surface 16" x 20' and I plan on a cedar raised bed about 10" high. Will this be deep enough for several vegetables? Corn, tomatoes, squash, strawberries, potatoes. Seattle area, the concrete bulkhead has a full sun exposure for most of the day. I have had good luck with tomatoes in the past and the spuds, but last year only the Delecta squash and the spuds got ripe. I do have the Square foot gardening reference.
