FAQs

What is the planting capacity of this garden bed?

The garden bed offers a planting capacity of 425 liters, providing ample space for a variety of plants.

Can I assemble this bed in different shapes?

Yes, the modular design allows you to assemble the bed into various shapes, such as round or oval, to fit your garden space.

How does the open bottom design benefit my plants?

The open bottom enhances drainage, preventing waterlogging and root rot. It also allows plant roots to access natural soil for better growth and stability.

Is the trellis sturdy enough for heavy climbing plants?

The trellis is designed to support climbing plants and can hold decorations or lights. For very heavy or vigorous climbers, additional support might be beneficial.

What materials is the garden bed made from?

The garden bed is constructed from galvanised metal, which is resistant to rust and weathering.

Are gloves included for assembly?

Yes, protective gloves are provided with the garden bed to help protect your hands during assembly.

How do I clean the garden bed?

You can clean the metal surface with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the galvanised coating.

Troubleshooting

Bed panels feel unstable after assembly.

Ensure all connecting points between modular panels are fully secured. Verify the ground surface is level and firm. Re-check the assembly instructions for correct panel orientation.

Water is pooling in the bed.

Confirm the open bottom is not obstructed by compacted soil or debris. Ensure the garden bed is placed on a surface with adequate drainage. If placed on a solid surface, consider adding a layer of gravel beneath the bed.

Trellis seems wobbly.

Ensure the trellis is properly attached to the main bed structure according to the instructions. If the bed itself is on uneven ground, this can affect trellis stability. Check for any loose fasteners.

Metal surface shows signs of rust.

While galvanised metal is rust-resistant, prolonged exposure to harsh conditions or scratches can lead to surface rust. Clean affected areas gently and consider applying a metal-safe sealant or paint designed for outdoor use.
