Benefits of Raised Beds
Last week we looked at the
.benefits of gardening with raised
beds. We saw that raised beds
could result in higher yields,
improved soil conditions (work¬
ability), and help for low-lying
areas where gardening could not
previously be done. This week
we look at a few additional ben¬
efits of raised beds.
. First is the ease of timely
planting and tending. Whereas
one would avoid working in a
traditional garden due to wet
or muddy conditions, he would
not hesitate to work in a raised
bed garden since they are
designed to be walked around
and , not walked ...... through. Spaces
between beds can be sodded,
mulched, or paved with bricks if
permanence is desired.
Pest control is easier with
raised beds as well. If burrowing
rodents tend to be a problem, the
bottom of the beds can be lined
with chicken wire or hardware
cloth. Weeds can be defeated
fairly easily with the application
0 f plastic mulch-perhaps in a
single span. Even birds may be
more easily discouraged, since
the narrow dimensions of the
beds make bird netting suspend¬
ed on frames practical.
Water conservation is another
benefit of raised beds. Soaker
hoses and drip tubing disperse
water in a long, narrow pattern
that is ideal for the layout of the
raised bed. This also reduces the
potential for disease problems
since the water is being directed
to the soil rather than to the
leaves of the plant as with over¬
head irrigation. Fertilization
can also be accomplished
through drip systems with the
proper injection equipment,
which is usually quite afford¬
able. It should be noted that,
since raised beds will dry out
faster than conventional beds,
they will require more frequent
watering and thus greater atten¬
tion to soil moisture levels.
If you are growing vine crops
such as melons, sweet potatoes,
cucumbers, etc. or sweet com,
raised beds may not be advis¬
able. This is because of the
large amount of space these
crops take up.
Everything considered, the
use of raised beds in your gar¬
dening endeavors is a boon to
production, a saver of time,
water, money, and effort. Why
don’t you try some this year? I
think you’ll be glad you did!
