Hey Jessy, what type of dirt did you go for top soil? Is it a compost mix or something?

Hey Charlie,

It was ment to be mushroom mix, and vegie soil BUT they gave me horse shite and i think landscaping mix.

Too far away to return it ....

I bought the dirt from Amazon Soil / Rich Gro and got ripped off.

Midland soils next time for sure. :cheers:

Hi guys,this is my first message,so I would like to let you all know how I have been making my wicking beds.I have 300mm of water[in upside down flower crates,like milk crates only smaller in height,but longer and wider]Then geoteck covers crates and up sides,put in watering pipe to bottom through geoteck,drainage hole at top of crate level,put in 300mm of organic soil,and plant vegies.300mm of water easier than 300mm of rock.Cheers Chris.
