Lactuca sativa

@robynee has built two wicking beds. Her DIY instructions: “An old IBC was cut in half, large coil of ag' pipe, then a layer of 7mm gravel, fill that with water, then geotec' cloth, then veggie mix and sandy loam. The water wicks up through the layers. An overflow tube is at the gravel level. Large diameter tube to add more water. Mulch & seedlings. Green shade cloth wrap will go around the sides to reduce algae growth. Brilliant design, works perfectly.” #veggies #wickingbed #veggiegarden #rais
