About 10 years ago i started layering wood chips like you because my soil was a solid clay pan, and the wood chips I could get all I wanted free locally delivered, they just wanted to get rid of them. Over the years I still go through about 6-8 loads of chips, I have a 1/4acre garden. But about 6 years ago, I was able to get a ton of 2x8 lumber for free and built raised beds on top of my wood chips garden. Over the years they of course decompose and i just chip the paths between beds, but I keep another two piles of wood chips that I treat as compost piles, which that is the mostly decomposed material I use every season to top of my beds. Probably over the past 3 years, my yields has been exponential. Not only are we feeding our entire house but about a dozen families on our street, its really quite insane. We are able to squeeze in more crops, harvest is super easy and space/efficiency has been maximized. Thanks for doing these videos.

So I don’t turn my wood chips I just plant directly down in them. After a year or so once you pull back about an inch you reach black gold in the form or great soil. Plus you shouldn’t turn your gardens. That encourages wind and water erosion of everything that is good in a garden, like minerals

@@batikh100 you definitely don't want to mix the soil with not composted wood chips. What I have seen on YT this is the common mistake and reason for people blaming the BTE is not working. Wood chips mixed with the soil will take the nitrogen from it to decompose. The natural way is like in nature - just adding new layers on the top.

I have been doing this from the start of my veggie patch, but I cut food grade bottles into tubes and plant inside the "grow tubes" that are sunk into the soil about 1 inch, great for water retention as well as giving the various plants different amounts of water inside the grow tubes, also cuts down on weeds.

James, good to see you again! I did the same thing today with the help of my grandson. It was his idea to use all my planters that were the same height and width. They all measured 14 inches tall, 12 inches wide. He put a 10 inch layer of wood chips over very large pieces of cardboard. Then we filled each planter with compost and lined them up on the wood chips. He told me no weeds for me to worry about. We did 4 planters wide and 10 planters long. It looks like a raised garden. My grandson told me he wanted me to garden easier this year. I had surgery and I'm getting back into the garden slower than usual. But he's going to help me this year. My great grand daughters will be helping this year too. They wish a fabulous birthday to your dog!!!! Love from south Texas and many Blessings too.

It is fenced in by a eight foot tall privacy fence. So my son in law did put in some cattle panels on the fence, using u shaped nails to hold them up, for the tomatoes and cucumbers. Now, it got better as they thought out the plan....he did have some four by four timbers that he used as a base for the platers to sit on. It made the tallest planters four inches taller! A great help for her back. Then just today they added 10 inch tall planters in front of the tall planters, so it looks like two tiers! Those he planted with flowers. It's so neat and tidy. We will do the same thing here at my home for all the herbs. I hope this will work out for you. Blessings from south Texas.
