The box I cobbled together from old pallets, dirt is a mix of potting soil and local dirt spiced with chicken poo.

For the more observant viewers, you may notice that the closest 'V' is slimmer than the upper square -- the pallets were a little short. I plan to plant smaller vegetables in those areas.

Hey numb nuts, more than one country exists, and I don’t know the laws in other places. I’m not gonna talk Specifically about one country where it’s potentially safe, because other people from other places will see it, and think it’s safe. Bottom line, don’t use treated chemicals and used pallets in your home. Also noticed how for treated wood I said recommended? That does cover situations where you CAN use it too! Imagine that!

Yes copper is safe, but some people like to avoid all chemicals in their garden, not a hard concept to understand.

by the way, your dropped this.

It’s also funny you’re trying to mansplain lumber to a carpenter dude lmfao.
