hi OWG,this is my first few weeks with it,my thinking behind it was,i can get to all bits without tramping on the soil,reach the sides to plant and tend things like melons that climb,i also trying out some baskets on the sides with tumble toms,or indeed strawberries next year,also with it being 3 long beds,will be good for a crop rotation should i need to,the barn runs from east to west,with the right hand side/long beds,face the south,i thought it better that way,so if i decide to grow anything like climbing,beans,tall toms,then they are all in the favoured position for the suns rays,and the long boarder on the left,should get what sun is left,we did make the sides 5ft,i also store the canes up in the rafters and if wanted to,could hang baskets of the cross members,lots of scope for the future,good luck with yourssigpicAnother nutter ,wife,mother, nan and nanan,love my growing places,seed collection and sharing,also one of these

have just been reading the thread from the begining,especcially the 1 about the beds lay out,last year i altered it to 1 path up the middle and got rid of the wood,better without it,so on reflexion am possibley might put some mor slabs down,and have the same arangement again,it has given me food for thought,so thanks peeps,i do have more pics on me phone,when i can work out whats happened,like where they been sent to,and retreive,Last edited by lottie dolly; 14-02-2013, 03:36 PM.sigpicAnother nutter ,wife,mother, nan and nanan,love my growing places,seed collection and sharing,also one of these
