Mar 18, 2010 - Any thoughts on whether it is "better" to have the hoops attached to the inside of the beds panels, or the outside?

Apr 19, 2010 - where do you get the soil to put into the raised beds? Just buying bagged soil would be pretty expensive if not prohibitively so.

Jul 23, 2010 - you can create proper drainage, create a gutter system under the gravel and have it run to pot plants.

Sep 6, 2010 - PVC is a highly toxic contaminant for its entire life cycle. Manufacture through use on to removal. What other options are available for the hoops? (If you question the veracity of my claim about PVC, check out the documentary "Blue Vinyl.")

Sep 26, 2010 - i love your idea for making corresponding raised beds to fit the livestock houses. did you build the livestock houses yourself? if so, what are the measurements?

Sep 26, 2010 - This looks great! And looks like a lot of fun. The wires on the bottom sound like a good idea, for animals. But would the wires disrupt any of the root vegetables, such as carrots? Or maybe they wouldn't go down that far, since you have a double layer of a box. :D

Apr 2, 2011 - Next project, look for a Power Pro screws. They'll self drill and self countersink in almost anything, including composite materials such as MDF and OSB. They are available in numerous sizes and with zinc exterior coatings. They are a Torx drive which IMO is the best marriage of no cam-out like a with a phillips screw and not having your bit try to lock into them like with a square drive screw. A bit pricey but they're a quality product. A google search should net results.

Apr 16, 2011 - why,do you need livestock? and do you put 3 holes on both edges of every piece of wood, or just on edge of holes on each piece of wood?
