However it's expensive. I've been using planks from B & Q which measure 20.5 x 144 x 4200 which costs about £7.00. The nearest I can find in plastic would cost £24.88 and only drops to £17 if you are buying 65. But I guess they would last forever!

I've found a non chemical preservative to use on the wood of my raised beds. It's called 'Procol'. I don't know if anyone else has tried it? I'll now have some raised beds made with untreated wood, and some treated with this - so we'll see if it makes any difference!
