Thank you both! I have been patting the soil down lightly and then watering gently until it absorbs and then watering again. I have other pots that are 14" diameter x 12" high. My only worry about having them outside is the potential critters getting at them. This is my first year gardening and I'm a bit of a worrywart
My mom offered these raised beds which were made this year... only I don't know what type of wood it is (looks like they may have been made from pallets?), and what's up with the black lines? I'm just not sure it would be safe to grow food in. Thoughts?
