Raised bed and flower pot planting #740974
Asked March 26, 2021, 5:45 PM EDT
I purchased a raised bed which ends up giving me about 6 inches of soil on top of chicken wire ( trying to block chip munks)
Lettuce grew nicely; carrots looked promising but didn't yield anything. 1) Was ground to shallow for carrots.
2) What best plants are good for this planter
3) planted string beans in pots. Started out great. All of a sudden, growth stopped and yield were 2-3 inch long, skinny beans, not enough for one meal. Was the pot an improper planter for string beans?

Expert Response
Mia! Thank you for your questions. For planting the carrots, the soil needs to be at least 12-16 inches deep. They have an extremely long root system. The string beams are dine in a container. You do need to make sure you have the right ph for them. I have a couple links below I think will help you. There is also an excellent book out called "Square Foot Gardening" by Mel Bartholomew. Alot of good information.
I wish you well in you garden this year
