Is anybody doing this ? Or have you done it in the past ? Does it work?

I am trying this. I have about 5m square in total that is divided into square feet. I have 3 mini shelf greenhouse things to start the veg off so it is in the ground for a shorter time. It is definateley easier to manage. Just have to deal with one square at a time. I am new to veg growing and thought this would be a good size to learn with.

Oh god, that looks complicated. I'm sticking with me pots...

Nooo it looks much tidier and simpler and easier to me. I got pots as well though.. and the open garden. I'm a bit disorganised but I want very much to try this.

Managed to convince my dad to allow me to start experimenting in the gardening with this. So once I've built me a timber frame and planted the seeds I'll let you know how it gets on with some photos hopefully!
