    Regarding one of your comments about existing weed seeds already in your soil. They make a Organic pre emergent made from corn gluten, Espoma Weed Preventer. This is not for use if you're going to start seeds in your beds.

    Pete, In my area pressure treated wood is hard to find. The shelves at Lowe's are close to empty with only a select few sizes being available. Here where I live in Southeast Tennessee, there is a lumber treatment facility down the highway. It is now closed and so is the lumber yard with a big sign saying up for auction. I went down to buy some lumber and was shocked when I saw the sign.

    • @petebeasttexashomesteading
      @petebeasttexashomesteading  4 роки тому

      Yeah I've heard that because of the pandemic, people are spending more time at home and catching up on projects like building a deck. But I don't know anymore, something else must be going on. The lumber mills should be working at full capacity not shutting down.

    If you line the inside surface of each planter with a rubber sheet waterproofing material like Grace Ice & Water Shield before installing them, the metal will last a lot longer. Since it’s so hot there in the summer an overhead mysting system could help minimize the temperature extremes. Are you going to use a drip irrigation system with an in line liquid fertilizing system for the planters?

    • @petebeasttexashomesteading
      @petebeasttexashomesteading  4 роки тому

      Thanks I was going to line the beds with 6 mill construction plastic but thought these should out last me 🙂 For now, we're just going to water by hand, maybe later I'll do some type of irrigation system.

    The only downside of galvanized steel is that it contains lead & once that lead gets into the soil it's there forever. I may try a small greenhouse/screenhouse that is filled with wooden wicking beds. I'll simply use a pond liner in the bed to keep the water off the wood with a life expectancy of 10-15 years.

    • @petebeasttexashomesteading
      @petebeasttexashomesteading  4 роки тому +1

      I've done some research on it and lead is not purposely added to galvanizing, rather it is an natural impurity in zinc. As far as I know they have been galvanizing steel for a couple hundred years for animal water troughs and buckets and in 1996 they started using a more purified zinc for the process. Zinc is the main element in galvanized steel and lead is almost non existent or about .5% the only thing that will release the zinc from the galvanized steel is very acidic soil which most vegetables can't grow in anyways. So I'm not worried about it. I thought about lining raised beds with plastic sheeting like 6 mill that's used in construction but then there's the plastic issue and BPA and it goes on and on...........

    Dear Pete, I'd like to ask you a seriously dumb question: Can the Raised Garden Bed Metal Elevated Planter for Vegetable Flower Herb (the ones you use here) be used over concrete slab?
    I don't want to bust out the existing old and ugly concrete slab (too much work for a little old lady) but I have no bare ground to plant anything.
    Please advise. Thank you.

    • @petebeasttexashomesteading
      @petebeasttexashomesteading  Рік тому +1

      There is no dumb question, if you don't know well, you don't know. Yes you can use it on top of concrete. It will be like a large container but remember that when you're watering, some of that water will leak out the bottom and stain the concrete. Other than that you'll grow great veggies.

    Are you planning to take those trees out? Maybe put in a pond for yourself? Lowering the fertile top soil level and removing the top layer of roots won't do them any good. The roots are not just an inconvenience to you, they are important for your trees' health.
