I have mentioned this before but not gotten to it yet. Real life sometimes intrudes!
What i want is to build a flush to the ground, and open to the ground at the bottom, TALL LONG raised garden. I am looking at 36ft long, about 2ft tall, and about 2ft deep.
Short of 144 cinderblocks, how would the rest of you go about this? The height is so I dont have to bend over much (back issues) but also it will raise the plants so they will look nice through the screened porch (unit going flush to the wall of a long screened porch with a 3ft retainer wall and screen above).
So far ideas are to make basic wood frame and set it on an outer rim of cinderblock to keep the wood out of the damp. Also, lining with heavy industrial plastic in layers so the dirt doesnt leach out too bad.
