What were the cut lengths for all the boards? I saw in the comments, the 4x4 were cut at 30 inches. What about the 1x6 and 1x4's?

Update for those who are curious. You need 2, 12 ft 1x6 boards. cut the 1, 12 ft board for the 24 inch boards (4 from this board), the remaining piece is 48 inches. Cut the next 12 ft board into 48 inch cuts (you'll get 3, 48 inch boards from it). You'll have 4, 24 inch boards & 4, 48 inch boards in total. You need 1, 10 ft 1x4 board. Cut into 24 inches each, you'll get 5 boards ( for underneath) I strayed away from OP's 30 inch posts, and did 42 inch. So, I got a 14 ft 4x4. 3 cuts making them 42 inch length each. I did all cedar, got it all from Menards for $50 for just the wood.

Nice job ! Cn you fill it 15 inches deep ? How does it hold up after a season of growing ?

Isn't that a bit uncomfortable to sleep on?

Mitch. I was a complete novice. I didn’t have any tools at all this time last year. This was the very first project I took on with a borrowed drill and mitre saw. Now I’m making all kinds of stuff and I even make money selling stuff. Thanks for a simple, easy to follow video.

ProTip - to determine the volume of soil you need, measure LxWxH (inches) and divide by 1728. That converts CubicInch to Cubic Feet, most garden shops sell soil by the cubic foot bag. A typical bag may be 1.5-2.0 cubic feet. If you only want it, 6” deep, then use 6” as your depth. So 4’ x 2’ x 6” bed would need (48x24x6) /1728 = 4 Cubic Feet of soil. If you need to know inches to cubic yards, divide by 46,656.

Did I miss something? How does it drain with the plastic on the bottom?

knowing little of tools, im confident to finally make something and be productive in my life. gardening and building seems really relaxing than doing nothing

Concise, informative, with non distracting music and a good presenter. This is what you want in a video. 10 out of 10

Dude the tongue and groove planks for the sides was brilliant. Never would have thought of that.

Thanks! It worked out well.

Loved it! Just what I needed to know for my garden bed!

I’m going to make this Tomorrow with my Sissy. I think we are going to make 2 of them . Thank you for making it so simple 👍🏾

i built this last year and it is great. Used all your suggestions. I am trying to grow some tomatoes and jalapenos in it now. Just wanted to say thank you.

This became my first do-it-yourself project...it came out great! Thanks for the clear instructions and for showing that it can be done!

Nice thanks for the info. I'm almost done with the one I made yesterday. Had to go back to Lowe's for the wire mesh....✌😊

Saw this this morning.. Went to local store for supplies... Spent the afternoon doing this project. From someone who does not build or savvy in the slightest with a drill but it was a success!!! Thank you so much for making this project easy as possible with measurements and list of supplies needed. Took me a min to figure out what kinda screws to use the 2" where too long and kept sticking out, maybe it was my drill idk but either way i got it done! Thanks again

An utterly fantastic video!! Thank you. I banged this out in about 3 hours time. The next one I make I'll have lumber cut at the store for better and straighter cuts though :)

OMG I love Mitch and your instructions are clear and concise! Thanks so much for sharing this!

I have now watched numerous videos and your way of making this bed looks like a way I could do it. I am all for making things easier not more difficult. THANK YOU!

Great project! We're looking forward to our home-grown vegetables and herbs! Thanks.

Wow I didn't know it'd be that easy.... Will definitely be making this, this week.

I just watched your video yesterday Mitch as I was looking for easy easy plans. I ran right out to Home Depot to grab everything and built 2 of them today. Only altered the height to 40” but left everything else as you instructed. Thank you so much for the easy to follow video, now it’s time to start planting!

Thanks for the video. Short and sweet

This looks great Mitch. Thanks!

Wow awesome video !!! Simple and straight to the point. I’ll definitely be attempting this !! Thank you for sharing

Brilliant! So simple and wonderful. I’ve built this and added a shelf underneath.

Great vid. Been wanting to make a cedar planter for a while. I made a planter out of some scrap pine a while ago and its held up pretty well but isn't deep enough and doesn't drain well. I like how you did the bottom of this one.
