If you want a raised garden bed that won’t lose its soil when it rains, get fabric from a gardening store and put it under each of your bed’s sides or inside the box itself before using other materials such as rocks or dirt. Try not to get fabric that blocks weeds from growing, and make sure to put any man-made materials above the fabric. Fabric is highly recommended for people who don’t want to build raised beds with more durable materials, since they’re easier to use and only require you to plant your desired plants, but some kinds of fabric are better than others if you want weeds to grow.

To prevent soil erosion, put cloth underneath your garden box. This will help to keep the soil in place without having to use heavier objects. Using fabric will also allow water and other elements, such as pests or weeds, to pass through it. If you’re putting compost and/or manure underneath your garden box, be sure to put it above the fabric since this will contaminate the soil. You can also use fabrics inside the box itself or around where you’ll be putting gravel for aesthetics, as fabrics hold these materials in place while still allowing water to pass through.

Put fabric under your raised garden beds if you want the soil to stay in place. This is because fabric will stop the soil from eroding away with water and other influences, such as pests. Fabric can be used underneath each of your raised garden bed’s sides or inside the box itself.

Fabric should always go below where you’ll be putting compost and/or manure so that it doesn’t get contaminated. It also works well under paths which require stones or gravel for aesthetics, as fabric will hold these materials in place while still allowing water to pass through.

One common concern about using cloth or fabrics is that they block weed growth but there are different kinds of fabrics specifically made for this purpose without blocking too much sunlight and oxygen flow.

  • To prevent soil erosion, put cloth underneath your garden box. This will help to keep the soil in place without having to use heavier objects. Using fabric will also allow water and other elements, such as pests or weeds, to pass through it. You can also have different kinds of materials on top of the cloth instead of just dirt or rocks, such as plants or flowers.
  • Fabric is highly recommended for people who want their soil stay intact with minimal effort involved where the only thing they need to do is plant their desired plants into these “boxes” made out of fabrics rather than actually building raised beds with hard materials that require more time, money and work.
  • If you’re putting compost and/or manure underneath your garden box, be sure to put it above the fabric since this will contaminate the soil. You can also use fabrics inside the box itself or around where you’ll be putting gravel for aesthetics, as fabrics hold these materials in place while still allowing water to pass through.

  • Many people worry about using fabric underneath their beds because they think it blocks weeds from growing, but if you get certain types of fabric, especially ones with small holes in them so air and water can get through, you shouldn’t have a problem with this. It’s also a good idea to put the fabric under where you’re going to be putting compost and/or manure so that it doesn’t get contaminated.
