What do you fill your raised beds with ?

[Kath]

We used the clay that was already there, MPC, manure (from the GC) compost from our bin and top soil which we bought, again from the GC. £28 per ton delivered.

i used topsoil,compost,and rotted manure that i put down and dug in november 2008,
and wow my veggie patch has gone off with a bang if this keeps up then this will be my 3rd year of good success.

good luck and happy growing

As I have sandy loam with little humus I use a thick layer of newspapers, then usually mix in chicken manure, leafmould and/or manure, with maybe a little woodash, (all depending on crop) with topsoil on top. For carrots and other root crops that need lots of drainage, I add a wee bit of sand to a seived mix put into pinchbar holes. I don't have transport even if I had money, so no mpc for me !

CATS!

Cutey lickle cat though, even if it does smell faintly of spring onions.

Mine ran away to the farm once for a week and when it came back, no one could get within 10 feet of it. It absolutely reeked, god knows what she had been doing.
