MOH made me lovely raised beds last year and I had a very successful set of crops. But at the time I only added some bought compost and some home made stuff to each bed dug into what was the base soil. The level in each (12 though 4 are a bit smaller than the rest) is very low and I just can't decide what to do I don't have a great deal of home made compost. Top soil seems the obvious answer but SOOO expensive. I'm scared to use the soil sold by the council as I keep hearing horror stories of supposedly what's in it! Bagged compost not too dear but not enough body to it. Can anyone help point me in the right or best direction? I have a terrific book about compost by Nicky Scott and really recommend it but I'm looking at needing bulk stuff not just how to make compost. I realise manure may be part of the answer but it restricts what's I can grow unless I want to encourage forking of some veg. I have no areas I can transfer soil from..well other than next doors allotment which is superb and unoccupied and I think I'd get into trouble
I live in West Sussex just in case of any recommendations. Near Gatwick Airport.
