Published on March 14, 2017
In 2017, organic gardening products for raised beds gained popularity, focusing on high-quality soil mixes and organic garden preparation techniques. Jessica Dawe, in an article, discussed various products that cater to these needs.
One of the products mentioned was the Premium Drinking Water Safe Garden Hose, a slim hose with a diameter of 7/16" and lightweight for easy handling. Another product, the VegTrug Raised Garden Planter, boasts a unique trug-shaped design and a water reservoir for efficient watering.
For those seeking a raised garden bed with a modern aesthetic, the Farmstead Raised Garden Bed is a suitable choice. Made of natural materials, the VegTrug Raised Garden Planter and Natural Cedar L-Shaped Raised Garden Bed are other options to consider.
Organic soil blends were a key focus in 2017. A top soil blend for raised beds typically included organic compost, coconut coir or peat moss for moisture retention, perlite or vermiculite for drainage, worm castings to enrich the soil naturally, and rock dust amendments for minerals.
Composting solutions, such as the Jora JK270 Composter equipped with a tumbling mechanism for efficient composting, and the Worm Factory 360 Composter that uses worms to break down organic waste, were also discussed. The Stainless Steel Compost Keeper was another composting solution mentioned in the article.
For those looking to create an eco-friendly lawn, the Wildflower Farms Eco-Lawn Grass Seed, designed specifically for such purposes, comes in a 5 lb package. The Corn Gluten Organic Fertilizer, with a composition of 8-0-0 and weighing 40 lbs, is another product that promotes organic growth.
