We were going to build more but then the expense of filling it plus the materials for the bed itself. Straw bales solves those expenses. It just takes time to condition the bale for growing. I use a thin layer of compost on top to hold the seeds. Transplants from our nursery which were mostly peppers this year are kinda lagging. Gotta work on a better technique for those. Seeds seem to have no problem.

Tons of videos on YouTube.
