Love it! I'm making plans for next season. I'm gonna do 8x12 foot beds with a surrounding bed of local wildflowers to attract pollinators.

8x12 feet? How do you intend to get to the center of the bed?

[–] Atomicbunnies@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You know that's not something I thought about... I'll have to reevaluate and maybe make a walkway. Thanks for bringing that up. Time to re draw my plan.

Yeah, no problem. Generally 4 feet is about as wide as you want to go if you have access from both sides, 2 feet if only access from one side

Thanks! I like to put the flowers at the ends of rows of veg. Gets the pollinators and predators right in there!
