Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Assembly is required. Ensure you have a clear, level area where you intend to place the raised bed before beginning assembly. Follow the included instructions carefully to connect all parts securely.
Compatibility: This raised bed is compatible with most standard potting soils and garden soil mixes. It is suitable for direct planting or for use with grow bags. It can be placed directly on soil, grass, gravel, or patio surfaces.
