    Hi Mike, Please tell us a little more about your cutting bed. Is it located in the shade, sun, etc.? Do the boards need to be pressure treated? Do you need weed barrier in the bottom to keep out weeds? How deep do you fill it with sand, and what kind of sand?
    Thanks for all the time you put into educating all us gardeners 🙂
