Perth Wicking Beds

Perth Wicking Beds Empowering people to grow. Earn a harvest with a unique sustainably made self watering garden bed.

Perth Wicking Beds are here to help you step by step on your food growing journey. Using the permaculture principles as our baseline philosophy we saw a way to help people reduce their impact by simply growing their own food and secondly doing that with a self watering garden bed made of recycled materials.

Another happy install for this young family keen on starting their growing adventure with custom made wicking beds made from 70% recycled materials.
The colourbond beds feature a Merbau hardwood top sealed in a satin marine varnish that doubles as a seat whilst tending the beds.
We included recycled extruded black pallets underneath for extra height and easy movability when required.
The beds feature our new expanded reservoir design which does away from gravel and means the beds can hold 220L of water.
Because we stay well away from using a black plastic liner in our beds that can be easily ruptured, this family can be sure their beds will provide many years of produce to come.

Monday saw PWB install the last 4 pallet wicking beds for the City of Stirling this time in collaboration with the Sudbury House Early Learning Centre. These beds will make a great addition to edible garden underway infront of the early learning centre creating sustainable learning opportunities and workshops for the little ones and full growns alike.
Cheers to my good mate Will for lending the laughs and mustle on the day.

A present for mum.
Janet was after two custom beds with a classic style + a little extra for mum. Made to sit on and garden with 70% repurposed material found locally, these beds include a satin marine varnished Merbou top for longevity and white trimmings.

Happy planting guys 🌱☺️

A little wicking bed commission piece for an office in the city of Vincent. Stylish with pop was my directive.
With around 45L - 50L litres of water capacity these entrance herb or small fruit tree beds will be powering ahead with the rest of the summer heat for years to come. Stainless steel screws and a waterproof internal coating to ensure longevity.
Last piece is PWB experimenting with recycled materials (pallets) for our IBC vegie beds and a coat of linseed oil for protection.
Does your office need some loving also? πŸŒΏπŸ€

There really is no substitute to home grown. No poison sprays, no traffic delays just nutrient rich goodness a few metres away.

Saving these seeds to create a melon for next year and years to come that is comfortable and thrives in my particular area's conditions.

This is what looking after my community looks like for me.

What are you up to?

Summer in the garden is all about Rockinmelons 🀘
Wicking beds have taken the worry out of the 40Β°c days for me this year. Sure some of the leaves get a little burnt around the edges, that's to be expected. But over all everything is absolutely thriving. Adding my home made liquid fertiliser directly into the beds when filling has really upped the game as the plants are just wanting to produce instead of just holding it together in the heat.
This morning I noted the Rockmelons bed water level had dropped somewhat, still not empty and the soil still moist and happy. It has been 4 days since I last filled it. I counted 22 Rockmelons at different stages of development from the one bed. (also carrots in this bed)
Wicking beds really are one of the best tools in the arsenal for home grown organics in Perth.
Its time to lock and load.

Absolutely loving this time of year in the verge vegie garden. Sunflowers, heirloom Sugar Babys πŸ‰, Rockmelons, Cucumbers and Green Beans are absolutely loving life in the wicking beds. Its been a good test for the wicking beds in this summer heat. Im averaging a fill of the beds every 8 days atm which I'm very happy about. 😊 IBC wicking bed kits including cut and washed IBC, all hardware, pallet to raise bed height delivery and setup available for $200 in Perth Metro. We have done all the hard work for you. Just a scoop of pea gravel and your choice of soil is all you need to get growing. 🌱🌻
