I am considering raised bed gardening this spring. As I research and plan, I have purchased Mel's "Raised Bed Gardening" book. He recommends a minimum isle width if 2-3 feet. Your isles look to be about 1 foot wide. What are your thoughts on the isle width. Given a chance to redo your overall layout, would you keep the existing width or go wider? Thank you in advance!

Build a Green House for Under $25by pondplantgirl254,042 views
In the UK there are 2 standard paving squares, 600mm (2 feet) and 400mm (16 inches)
I decided to use 400mm except for one path down the left which uses the wider one to take the wheelbarrow.
If you have the space, go for 600mm, I do not regret my choice but wider would be better. It is of course more expensive to use 600mm slabs.
Good luck.

Sow peas and beans in pots and transplant into the ground in a few weeks preferably under cover. Onion sets and garlic can be planted to get establisehd over the winter as well. Try winter lettuce and even carrots in big pots.
See my website for hints.

How about building a raised bed with plastic, 2 or 3 liter bottles?in a garden or somewhere you can dig em?

It is possible, by filling each bottle with water soil and planting them top down. The whole lot would have to be surrounded by a piece of rope and to prevent them bulging out, would have to be in a circle.
Unfortunately a 4 foot diameter bed would need about 50 4 inch diameter bottles, a hell of a lot of pop. An 8x4 bed would require just over a 100.
Happy drinking!
There was a garden in Scarborough where every flower bed in the front garden was edged with inverted gin bottles
