Pour thin and sleek concrete panels that link together to make long-lasting rot-proof thin garden beds. In this episode I mix and pour a high strength concrete blend and cast thin garden box panels that can be linked together or stacked to create raised garden beds. The panels link together at right angles to make a square or rectangular raised garden beds. They can also be linked end-to-end to lengthen the garden box. These panels are 1-1/2" thick so require a high strength concrete much like a countertop pour. The use of a water reducer or plasticizer is required to create a pourable mix that has a low ratio of water to dry ingredients. The panels are poured in plastic ABS vacuum formed molds with removable pipes to form holes in each end.
