[mysciencenow]

[growingyourgreens]

Yup, they are cross sections of bell peppers.. I figured it out after I look at it some more..

[JackANDJude]

Those sculptures in the background are sliced peppers - red, orange, green and yellow. John, check out my "Sunflowers in the Yarden 2010" video on my channel. I planted lots of veggies in my front yard. Cheers!

I envy those people. We don't have any coummunity gardens in our towns.

What is the height of the most of the raised gardens?

[Yungblade41]

@apaulanarius bout 12 inches for fruits an veggies

[apaulanarius]

@Yungblade41 Thanks for the info; but the gardens in this video appear to be taller than twelve inches.

[Yungblade41]

@apaulanarius i thought you meant in general, yea the raised beds in this look about 2 1/2 feet tall

[growingyourgreens]

The raised beds in this video were made with 2x6 lumber that was stacked 3 tall, so about 18" tall overall. Please check my other videos for an episode I talk about how high to build your raised beds. For MOST things, 12" will be sufficient.
