Hi
I'm hoping to construct a raised bed to offer an area with improved drainage.
I was going to just use some scaffolding boards rather than buying treated timber. I have previously heard that modern timber isn't treated very thoroughly anyway (only the first couple of mm).
I was wondering how long you'd expect untreated scaffold boards to last when in continuous contact with the soil?
Thanks
