Raised Planter Soil?

sunflower1237
13 years ago

Since the previous owners of this house filled the backyard with gravel, sand, and weed block fabric, we decided that raised planters would be the best option for extending our kitchen garden. There was a 6'x36' area that they had landscaped that I was able to turn into a nice little garden.

What kind of soil mixture should we fill the raised planters with? Should we find some fill dirt and mix it with garden soil and compost? Or should we fill it with moisture control potting soil?

Thanks!
