Fill the raised bed correctly

The correct stratification of your raised bed is extremely important for a productive harvest. Because the perfect arrangement guarantees optimal nutrient absorption by the plants. There are these four layers - from bottom to top:

• At the very bottom, about 25 cm high of rough tree or hedge cuttings are filled in, i.e. branches and twigs. Wood chips are also an option. This layer ensures that enough air gets to the other filling materials from below and that waterlogging does not form.
• Autumn leaves, grass clippings or fine chopped material form the next layer. Thickness: about 20cm. Important. Compact the first two layers well, otherwise the contents will collapse quite quickly as they rot. If desired, then lay down sod with the roots facing upwards so that nothing trickles down from top to bottom. This step can also be omitted.
• This was followed by a layer of coarse compost soil, mixed with some leaves.
• The last and top layer is now a high-quality flower, plant or special raised bed soil. With the raised bed, nothing stands in the way of an individual design according to your wishes.

Numerous plants and vegetables thrive faster in a raised bed and produce a higher harvest. The reason for this is the higher nutrient balance and the overall more favorable microclimate. The heat released during the rotting process makes the growing phase longer. With a little experience and the appropriate accessories, even two harvests are possible.
