Filling a raised bed: layers to tick off
A raised bed is filled from the bottom up. The checklist shows which layer is in and what you still need to buy.
How it works
A common build has coarse material at the bottom and fine soil on top. Layer thickness depends on bed and materials. Work out amounts with the raised bed calculator in the overview.
Tick off each layer as soon as it is in. Progress stays on your device even while you browse the garden centre.

Must I follow exactly this order?

How much soil do I need?
