Yep..that's the only downside. In the summer I have to water them in the morning and evening.

ok Maggie, you have raised the bar on me. Now I gotta go build me another raised bed.

MsHunter, all my raised beds are on slopes. use a line level (about $1.50 at your local) to get it right.

This is what my octagon bed usually looks like during the warm months. It pulls in loads of bees, butterflies and pollinators! This was taken last spring really before most of the flowers had bloomed.

I actually thought about that but then I would have to fence it to keep the dang dogs out. I built a shelf down my fence and set the buckets on it. Have a hose right there and the dogs can't dig or pisses on them. Works out pretty good for me.

For what it is worth, here are a couple of shots of the panels I put on the raised beds. They work amazingly well.

If you cannot guess, gardening is my passion.

Go for it!! We grow soooooooo much in our raised beds and eat amazing food all summer and even put some up!! If I still had to grow in the ground and do all that weeding, I would not even think about doing my gardening now. The older we get the more efficient we get....

Thanks for the compliment too...mighty nice of ya.
