Another raised bed in the backyard.
It was the first of my raised beds, that John built for me out of untreated cedar and filled it with good garden dirt. I have had tomatoes in it for two seasons (2005 and 2006) and started getting Early Blight on the tomatoes during 2006. So when John built me the other two beds, I’ve stopped growing tomatoes here.
It is partially shaded by the play structure for Jet, now. The western sun doesn’t hit it as good as it did before the play structure, and the trees have grown more on the Eastern side, so it gets less morning sun. So I’m having more trouble with the sun plants this year in this bed.
Also the watering hose has to go the furthest for this bed, so I have leak problems getting the drip hoses to work as well as they do in the near beds to the south.
liralenli's Vegetable garden is an outdoor garden and is located in Longmont, CO, United States and currently contains 5 plants.
