I can only refer you to a post I wrote in the fall when I first got the idea that shows photos of how they are supposed to look!<BR/><BR/>http://nyackbackyard.blogspot.com/2008/10/raised-beds-bottle-beds-and-papier.html<BR/><BR/>I figure 5-6 wine bottles per foot of bed that you want to edge (?) I'm in the process now of digging a narrow circular trench (hard cause it's still frozen) to put the overturned wine bottles in side by side. Then I'll fill in with dirt and pack them in- luckily here it is pretty much like clay!<BR/><BR/>Hopefully I'll be able to fill in the raised circle bed with better soil and plant herbs.<BR/><BR/>Still very much a work in progress...! wish me luck :-)JGHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16710652130966518173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7420871845813973733.post-82130877072121906522009-03-09T09:55:00.000-04:002009-03-09T09:55:00.000-04:00I second the anonymous questioner above.I second the anonymous questioner above.R.L.
