126 - 3 Raised Bed Soil Mixes Compared

Have you ever wondered what kind of raised bed soil mix is the best? I have been growing in raised beds from the very beginning of my garden journey. Up until last year, I used native soil on my property to fill them. But when I needed to find soil outside my property for three new raised beds last season, I decided to conduct an experiment. I tested three different raised bed soil mixes and today I'm sharing the results of my year-long test.   SHOW NOTES: (*links below contain affiliate links, which means if you click through and make a purchase, we will earn a commission at no extra cost to you.)   Mel's Mix: https://amzn.to/2T5QhLx Perfect Soil Recipe: https://joegardener.com/podcast/raised-bed-gardening-pt-2/   For the blog post: https://journeywithjill.net/126     Special thanks to our sponsor, Good Ideas, Inc.
