I’d preferring starting with a clay than sand… sand drains very easily and has almost no nutrients, where as clay is full of nutrients. Sand requires LOTS AND LOTS of organic matter to help it retain moisture and nutrients, and clay can be easily amended with lime and compost, and then a nice layer of mulch..
very good point about soil types. Huge difference between sandy loam and clay loam.
Cool thanks
Wow! thats a great tip! Thanks!
cool
I agree ; using wood frames for raised beds seems extravagant , and just means cutting down MORE trees . In the spirit of the Garbage Warrior i used old metal office shelves and roof tiles i got for free .junk in other words , i let them down about 6 inches into the soil . i reckon this helps keep out perrenial weeds and stops the sides collapsing .
I reckon the Chinese must get less rain than we do in England

Expert village…
Your way sounds interesting, will be much inexpensive.
This is a video about different soil types, not so much about Raised Bed Gardening.
paste this to 2 other videos
go to your channel and see your comments
JUST DO IT IT SCARY!!!
They are leaving out important info. If you have clay soil you need to lime it. Just buy the cheap stuff, the expensive time release is actually encapsulated in MORE CLAY, so you will be poisoning your soil. Just lime it, let that soak in, add sand, and then add compost. You can turn clay into rich black soil in just a few years this way. Important to know if shit gets bad. If you can’t buy lime, just use ash. It does the same thing, it raises the pH of the soil. Have fun!!!
I’m not sure why people use wood frames to make raised beds – this is counter-productive and not the point at all. Using wood can attract pests and fungus and does not allow the soil to ‘breath’ and get warm from the sun. In China, where raised beds are common practice, they don’t use wood at all and have excellent raised bed gardens. Just measure out the rows – five feet wide by whatever length long, and about 4 feet wide at the top of the bed so the sides taper in a little.
Is this the only comment you post? I’ve seen in under numerous expert village videos!
To echo inbocaru, this is really not so much a video on what a raised bed is as much as it is on what good soil is.
Just a tip for those watching.
this guy sounds like casey casum
What’s the purpose in making a video when text covers the first 30 seconds of that video? Shouldn’t this be in the “more info” section?
OMG a video from expert village that actually made sense and gave us great information. yeah!!
