Problem with veg trug
Hi. I have just joined the forum and would like to know if anyone can help with a problem we have with our veg trug. My husband made the trug for me to grow veg and he made a really good job of it but as time has gone on over the couple of years the back and sides have bellowed considerably and the compost/soil has sunk about 4". My husband left a drainage slit at the bottom, we lined it with black plastic which had holes in it and we added a good layer of polystyrene to aid drainage. Any ideas of what the problem could be please?

Sounds like the wood was not strong enough for the weight of soil, any photos of it?
Thanks Mark that's a good point. Sorry no photos.
