How the bed is laid out

Melon and aubergine side by side in rows, under a protective glass or plastic frame.

An experiment: growing melon and aubergine in a raised bed without a greenhouse, using frames for the extra heat. Early pak choi got the bed started before the heat-lovers moved in.

A friendly reminder: every garden plays by its own rules. Zones, soil, weather and a hundred small things decide what works — so this is how I did it and what worked for me, not a promise. Try, learn, adjust, try again.. that's half the fun anyway.
