Making a raised bed in order to grow veggies

you can buy grow bags to dput your veg in they sell on ebay and other websites they are good although do stunt the amount grown according to gardeners world on telly the other day. Not sure about raised beds on paving slabs should think so cant see why not. stones at the bottom to help with drainage I think would help

hi vici

scrape of gravel fork over ground, build raised bed from eg scaffolding batons saw in half nail em together fill with soil/compost and plant . . . . .. . did I mention the hardwork between stages. Have a look at myblog you will get the idea , or type in raised bed in the search panel top right of screen

Hi,

Thank you both for your replies.

I am using grow bags for my tomatoes, but would love to try runner beans, carrots etc.

Will definately start on a small raised bed on my next day off.

Thanks again for all your help

Sorry to be a bit late, but some veggies can be grown in pots. Carrots are one!

Thanks Craftnutter, a few people have been telling me that. I actually looked it up online, and certainly seems quite a good way to grow veg if space is limited.
