No moisture issues, since Im running 100% compost. At 8" tall each, I have 24" in wall with 2" cap for 26" total height. I pick up a trailer load or two of compost each spring at my local recycling center. They make compost with people's trimmings, all refined,no issues of getting dog poo or such.That's really nice, I did raised beds at my old place bu not to that extent, do you have any issues with retaining moosture with them elevated that much with block looks about 2 feetish
No mortar. Just layed like you would brick. I wanted to be able to change layouts so instead of mortar I cut 2' pieces of 4x4's and slid them in the holes on the corners and a couple in the long stretches just for structural integrity.That's awesome you can get that much compost, I collect and make my own, are your blocks just sitting on the ground or did you put any kind of foundation for them?
