Thought I'd share a tool I developed for calculating the amount of soil you'll need for a raised bed garden. If you're brain dead when it comes to math, like I am, this should come in handy. :o I will add more content/instructions when I have some time, but here's a sneak-peek.

What's 32cubic ft equal in yard buckets where I get the soil? :)

LOL! FYI?I do plan to make it also churn out cubic yards because I know some people buy their soil in bulk.
Also, it will explain proper soil composition, but if there is anything you all think might be useful, let me know. I'm all ears. :cowboy:

1.18 (they usually over fill the bucket to be fair so one scoop should do you.)

27 cubic feet in a cubic yard.

Nice! This will be quite useful.

Thanks! :)
FYI?it now tells you both the cubic feet and cubic yards. I still have some features to add, but there is that pesky day job that keeps getting in the way. :(
