RE: Pressure treated: ACQ

Interesting thread.  How do plan to install the pine ?

You may want to consider using vapor barrier between the pine
and the soil.  To prevent the wood from rotting AND to prevent any
chemicals ( ACQ ? )from leaking into your soil.

I am also looking into re-framing my garden with pine or cedar.
Which do you think is best.

Subject:	Pressure treated:  ACQ

Hello...

I'm planning on building a couple of new raised vegetable beds this spring.
 I already have 9 raised beds that have been created over the past few
years using pressure treated pine... yes, the pine treated with the
arsenic.  [Yes, I understand that there is a potential exposure using
pressure treated pine in a vegetable bed].

At any rate, the local lumber yard has informed me that they will be
receiving a "new" pine, pressure treated with "ACQ".  This "ACQ" chemical
is supposed to be environmentally safe.  Has anyone heard of this "new"
pine?  Has anyone heard of the ACQ?  Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx.

Rene.
