Is this garden still going? I am very impressed with this video and your work! Congrats!

One of the most Important an overlooked. ROOTS they need some place to grow and something to eat. I'll bet your yield was poor. plants are what they eat and your bag of processed mix, well ?

Thank God there's a Mute on YouTube!

yeah judging by the dead grass everywhere you have no idea what plants need to grow.
-

We just did an 4x8 raised bed. Why the chicken wire cage? Do you have deer problems? Ours has been in for 2 weeks and have just now noticed somethig nibbling away at our basil. In the big city of L.A. we don't have a deer problem (just a racoon problem eating my koi) Chicken wire won't foil racoons or instects obviously.

Our main problem has been a seemingly endless supply of groundhogs. We have deer in the area as well, but luckily they haven't made it into the fenced-in yard, yet.

@pellcio I ove your idea for the chicken wire cage!!! Is the chicken wire twisted or folded onto itself in the top corners? How did you make the cage? I can see that you clamped the wire in between the two lumber squares, but how is the top and sides enclosed? Is it strong enough for squirrels to scurry over the top without caving?
Ingenious idea!!!!!!! Thanks! Lara

Lara,
The cages are each made from two lengths of chicken wire that are folded into U-shapes. One of these is rotated 90-degrees and put on top of the other one. So the top is doubled. Mel's book suggested just tying the sides closed every six inches or so, but I wanted to improve on that. I used some stainless steel wire and 'stitched' the sides together, working my way up. It took forever and I must have lost a quart of blood, bit it was worth it.
