Two Wicking Beds and Arch Trellis

We installed two wicking beds connected by an arched trellis in Sutherland, NSW.

One bed was 4m x 1.4m x 0.45m high, the other 3.5m x 0.6m x 0.45m high.

The archway was ideal for growing tomatoes and cucumbers over in summer, and snowpeas in winter.

The larger bed grew prolific amounts of produce - in one season there was 40 corn cobs, 30 eggplants and sweet potato all companion planted. See this blog post for more details: https://www.urbanveggiecrew.com.au/post/sydney-companion-planting-experiment
