This means the interface won't deform over time, the edges stay smooth and safe to touch, and the whole structure remains stable even when filled with heavy soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Land Guard Raised Garden Bed is made from Q195 galvanized metal sheet in silver.

This allows excess water to drain freely and lets roots grow deeper into the ground for better nutrient absorption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eShould your raised garden bed have a bottom?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eNo. An open base is actually better for most vegetables. It prevents waterlogging, encourages deeper root growth, and allows natural drainage exactly why the Land Guard is designed without a fixed bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eHow often should I water a raised bed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eGenerally every 1–2 days in summer and every 3–4 days in cooler months. The open base design of the Land Guard helps prevent overwatering by draining excess moisture naturally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExplore our full range of \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 128, 0);\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/myzeno.com.au\/collections\/outdoor-gardening-essentials\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 128, 0);\"\u003eOutdoor Gardening Essentials\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e and find everything you need to build your perfect garden.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MYZENO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44075737907243,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/8349\/1627\/files\/RaisedGardenBedKit-1.webp?v=1778995847","url":"https:\/\/myzeno.com.au\/products\/land-guard-galvanized-raised-garden-bed-oval","provider":"MYZENO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
