Beds: How to construct raised beds and what structural considerations are paramount?
"Okay, hold the concrete mixer! While raised beds look impressive, let’s be brutally honest about the single biggest rooftop nightmare they can create: leaking roofs! Once you put a permanent, wet structure up there, you’ve introduced a waterproofing nightmare that can cost ten times the price of the bed. Why risk the neighbor's plaster just for a few carrots? Even worse, in Jaipur, they absolutely kill flexibility! You can’t tuck your delicate plants into the shade during the scorching summer or shift them to chase the perfect winter sun. It’s a fixed, long-term commitment.
Frankly, this is not something we recommend unless you have an engineer and a waterproofing expert on speed dial and are truly hell bent on it.
Stick to lightweight, movable options; your roof (and your wallet) will definitely thank you!"
