Good afternoon, my reader. It is always pleasant to be fenced with fresh vegetables grown on a land plot with their own hands. However, not all dachans have time or a great desire to constantly dig in the ground. Therefore, the ability to create "smart" beds is for someone an ideal chance with minimal effort to collect abundant yields.

A good yield largely depends on the place where the beds are located. Most plants prefer good (solar) lighting and loose, fertile, moderately moistened soil.
In addition, it is desirable that the land plot is protected from cold winds by the fence. However, it is not worth landing the plants near the fence, since most of them do not tolerate shading.
Smart beds, which are sometimes also called high or warm, is a simple, but very effective structure. Thanks to an unusual device, they do not need frequent weeding weeds. In addition, in bad weather they can be easily protected by film shelter.
The size of rectangular beds can be arbitrary. However, it is not worth making too large boxes, because they will be harder to care for them. Those dacifices, who have no suitable (wide, long) boards at the hands of suitable (wide, long) boards, you can build warm beds from any rebuilt material: flat slate, old brick, wild stone, and so on.
The length of the warm bed is governed by the owner of the cottage, but its width is ideally should not exceed 60 cm. The height of the box should be about 50 cm, since it will need to be laid a multi-layer "filling".

In order for the construction to be stable, the base of the box is installed in a small recess cooked in advance. The bottom of the future beds is closed with a grid (from rodents) or lined with cardboard, tight paper, old newspapers. The drainage layer of rubble, broken brick, gravel or pebbles are poured on top.
Sold (plant) into high beds of the plant can be for a couple of weeks before usual. The substrate laid in the box, after abundant moisture, will start over and highlight heat. In addition, if necessary, landing can be easily covered with film or agrovolok. To do this, it is only necessary to install metal arcs along the entire box.

For convenience, vegetable crops are planted (seeded) in 1-2 rows: so plants will not shade each other. Despite the obvious advantages, smart beds have one drawback: the soil dries quickly in them.
To reduce the evaporation of moisture from the soil mixture, its surface is mulched by a humus or compost. This will allow watering plants less often. In addition, the protective layer will save the beds from malicious weeds.
High beds can be considered a successful device for lazy or busy dacities. However, before you take advantage of this facility, you will have to make it first. But during the harvest period, the efforts have spent by night.
