One of the most important features of raised beds is being able to add a soilless mix to your raised beds. Soilless mixtures are made from compost and nutrients that are beneficial for the plants. This helps your plants grow stronger, deeper roots and produce a higher crop yield. The soil is also light and fluffy and gives you better soil than simply planting right into the ground.

 

    Tips For Better Soil:

  • Add organic matter to the soil. Compost is a wonderful way to add nitrogen to your soil and produce better crops.
  • Be sure that the soil you buy is nice and lightweight.
  • Look for a potting soil with peat moss, pine bark, and vermiculite as ingredients. Peat moss holds moisture while adding nutrients and soil acidity.
