hahah, my son and I had a lot of laughs about the website.
We made some wicking beds out of plastic 44gallon drums, cut in half with an old long washing machine hose for the water tubes. I had some old irrigation bits we used for the drains. they worked really well. Had four, I’m sure they’re still being used by the new owner. She loved the idea.
The ones I made using builders plastic were not as good, as it tears easily and its a huge job to dig soil up to replace the thing. Your clay / wood one sounds great though and seeing as we’re expecting a dry summer making water saving beds are a no brainer.
