Some type of heavy duty plastic. I read a lot of Amazon reviews and reviews on other sites and it got really good reviews. They snap together in about 5 minutes. I wish they were 12" tall but they are 9", but I knew that before I bought them. Good thing is they come with connectors/brackets where you can stack them on top of each other. So If I decide I want deeper beds that won't be a problem. They seem to be a good product. No complaints so far. https://www.amazon.com/Lifetime-600...;qid=1556478858&s=gateway&sr=8-1

One cu ft is equal to about 30 quarts.

That soil should work good blended with the others you did. I use a blend of soil too. In no particular order this year I used compost I got at the local nursery. Then from Walmart I got some composted cow manure, black kow, miracle gro garden soil. I'll put some of each bag in with a sprinkle of vermiculite, perlite, lava sand, expanded shale. Mix it/till it together good then repeat the process until the box it full. It's a PITA initial process but once it's done it's done and next year I'll just have to blend in a little and it won't be that bad at all.

Ta da. My first zucchini. I plan to stir fry it with a the jalape๑o, an onion, salsa, and a couple of yellow squash that I will pick tomorrow. I have baby pickles on the vines and my first tomato is showing a little blush.

I'm not a big fan either. But my wife and other family members love it. I should grow them some. I like the marinara premivara idea.

Cut in little chunks. Fry with a little bacon, salt and pepper. Don't let liquid pool up. Same with zucchini, yellow squash, patty pan

Zucchini and yellow squash, slice it up along with some red onion, mushrooms and red bell peppers. Mix together with olive oil, salt and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet then bake at 450 until it starts turning brown around the edges. Great stuff.
