Question about Keter Easy Growing

Should I now build up the structure here with different layers (if so, which ones?), or can I leave it all out and just pour in soil directly? What about fleece? Thank you!

Yes, please build up several layers if vegetables, lettuce, etc. are to be planted.
Do not use expanded clay, it is not needed as it is only used for training, which is not necessary here as the raised bed itself has a training layer.
And then three layers:
- At the bottom: 10 cm of branches, leaves, plant cuttings, chaff, wood shavings if necessary. The material rots over time, releasing nutrients and helping with water circulation at the same time.
- Then compost (e.g. 60 litres of Migros organic garden compost) Migros organic garden compost (30 l)
- Then raised bed soil (e.g. 40 litres of organic raised bed and vegetable soil)
Compo BIO raised bed and vegetable soil - peat-free (40 l, peat-free soil)
Migros-Bio Garden raised bed and vegetable soil (30 litres, peat-free soil)

Fill the raised bed piece by piece and loosen the soil (crumble the clods by hand). Water lightly. Leave to stand for 2 or 3 days while it settles. Top up if necessary.
Leave a rim when filling so that the young plants are somewhat protected from the wind.
When filling, make sure that the float can move freely.

I would highly recommend this. I have had very good experiences with the layers. The plants grow incredibly well. It also helps the drainage, whereby the tap is intended for excess water. Nevertheless, the layers are also for internal aeration and also ensure that no rotting occurs. The layers should go from coarse to fine. For example, the Bauhaus used to sell special raised bed soil with the different layers No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3. I have never used fleece for this. Greetings Mauro

Put 3 cm of expanded clay on the bottom then put potting soil directly on top
