I would like to know how much soil it takes to fill the two gardens? Also how much would the extra 2 pieces of wood and end caps be to separate them?

It was either 2 or 4 yards of top soil. Cost me $20 to go pick it up in my Chevrolet Truck. Since I remember the price, I believe it is going to be the 2 yards. I can look at the dimensions again and tell you for sure if you wish. I could have used a tad more, but I had a beautiful garden that I would be glad to send you pictures of. I was very impressed. I recently became disabled and my 23 year old daughter and I put it together in about 20 minutes or less just using my drill; drill bit to create starter holes where they don't have them and then flip to the Philips screwdriver head. It really was a breeze. I am not sure about separating it because it is made precisely for the look you see advertised. If you buy it, just to make things easier for you. Before you set the frame down where you will utilize it, put down the weed barrier black paper you can buy at Wal Mart or Lowes and you won't have to worry about any weeds. The only problem I had is the weather and the soil was so good my plants, from squash to tomatoes, to okra got really large and robbed each other of nutrients and kind of all grew together, but the production was still a success. Happy Gardening of Flowering!!

I had landscapers put mine together and fill with topsoil because I have disabilities. They said they didn't recommend it on cement unless you stapled very heavy weight plastic to the inside to prevent soil loss and you'd have to make sure you got plastic that wouldn't have chemicals in it that could leech into your plants. I put mine in the yard, on the grass, and had good luck with them and I have 6 beds. Make sure you get good quality top soil -- I had a yard of it delivered from a local supplier and it was great, black dirt with no stones or stems in it. My landscaper said it was about the best dirt he'd seen and it was under $75 delivered. I hope this helps you decide how you will proceed.

Premium garden mix from a nursery or home center. The soil should be loamy and drain well. Regular "dirt" would compact over the growing season. Plan on spending about $15.

Gosh, I wish I could tell you. I have two and love them. Having two lets me cook compost in one, but continue to add material to the other. I recently emptied one of mine into my new veggie garden bed and it spread over an area about 5ft X 6ft at around 2 to 3 inches deep. I suppose there's a math equation that could figure out the gallons from those figures.

You can put 2 of these together as Carolyn and some other reviewers have said, however Carolyn's math is quite a bit off. I went and figured it out myself. A hexagon with 2ft sides is a little over 10 square feet, as it says. Adding the 2 panel extension makes it an octagon, which would be slightly more than 19 square ft, also as stated. The difference is that combining 2 yards would have 12 panels and be a dodecagon, which would be about 44.8 square feet. You'd have to get 3 sets of extensions to equal the same area, since all the sides are 2ft in length. The extensions currently cost 52.14, which is 156.42. The playyard itself is 155.96. Thus you are getting a better deal with 2 playyards. Not only is it slightly cheaper, it also gives you an extra door panel. That means it's more adaptable for using as 2 separate gates if you want to at some point.

I guess it depends on how you grow it. I use organic soil and get two full cuttings. The grass is a little less tender on the second go, but a 900W Bullet handles it nicely. No luck so far with a third cutting, as mold tends to develop on the soil surface.

I believe they are closer to two inches. BTW, the raised garden was great and I plan to reuse it this year.

It takes 20 bags of soil. That's approximately 40 pounds each. If your deck can hold 800 pounds, plus retaining water from rain or watering.

I filled it to the brim with garden soil, pete moss, and cow manure (80%, 10%, 10%). Total about 14 cubic yards

Not necessasarily you need to look online and ask a nursery a garden shop call them for best mix I have Peat moss:perlite and try to grow vegetables and insect eating plants the mix is different per type of plant I think you may have to add 4 soil count to 1 or 1:1 depending on your location

Sounds like a nice idea and very pretty too. I hate to say it but the only answer I have for you is "maybe" right now. It's not something you can judge unless you've tried to do it using precisely the size hook you will purchase (supposing their different heights might have different thicknesses of wrought iron and different lengths of the two ends that get stuck into the ground and certainly different weights on the entire hook pieces themselves because of all that.) So I'd buy 1 of everything needed to make up one completed set-up. Next I'd weigh up precisely the specific individual weights of your jar/least amt. of water necessary/flowers/hook, then tally the total weight involved. I'd then try to implant it into the particular kind of dirt/soil at the locations you'll be pushing the hook into on the wedding day. Also try it in the different locations around that property to test that the weightn will be secire in those particular different types of soil you can find on one property. For instance, if there was an area that had a rock garden and an area full of trees with a lot of roots spread through the ground, this test might show me that I'd have to change my plan to shape the overal arrangement layout on the ground into an oval shape rather than a circle of arrangements. I'd even try it in wet ground on the morning after a rainfall on a previous night. Then I'd have no surprises and I'd have a plan A + B to work with on wedding day, IF all else looks like it would work out in the first place.

I have two of these, and if I remember correctly, I bought a yard of soil (cheaper than many bags of soil from Lowes) and it filled them both and I had a full wheelbarrow left. So, ha;f a yard of soil should be plenty. I would recommend a mix if you are in an area where the topsoil is high in clay, or it can pack down when you have a raised bed type planting. Any other questions feel free to ask, I have lots of raised rock beds/these/and other root pouch containers !!

Not sure, but those big double bags they sell at home depot of miracle grow soil, fills it up I believe. I do know that you don't want to use moisture control soil in it, I had one with it, and the potatoes in the bottom rotted. I ended up getting probably 10-15 pounds of potatoes that were good from both of mine, the ones on the bottom were huge in one, and rotted in the other one with moisture control soil. Just make sure watch the soil and water them. They do work, and are fun.

i just used a pair of scissors..it took me a little longer but i could cut pieces to fit the odd curves of the garden...best of luck...

The beds are as deep as the box, there's no filler underneath. We used approximately 5 cu yards of soil (We ordered 5, had some left). You can plant anything you want in there. I absolutely LOVE this garden. Hope this is helpful.

The raised garden has at least two screws on each corner which gives it a lot of support. Hope this helps.

according with the directions wood mulch sand ash gypsum(drywall crushed up) and peat moss is the combination that I used but I won't know if my garden til this spring because you want to start your mushroom farm way before winter for the spores to multiply . According to what I have seen online you want the soil in poor condition for what would normally be good for other vegetation. I have not had any luck with my garden but good luck to ya
