Hi reddit, I need some help! I built some raised garden beds a few years ago and over time they've bowed out at the tops and I want to fix it. There's a picture in the link below but to be honest they've bowed much worse than what it appears in the pic. The beds are empty now, luckily I had another use for the soil already in there.
The posts are sunk in twice as deep as they are high, in heavy clay soil, but without concrete footings. The person that helped me build it (much more knowledgeable than I on this sort of thing) thought they would hold but evidently not. He was a family member of my now ex so I no longer have access to him for any further advice.
I did some googling and saw a suggestion of using threaded rods to connect the top of the posts then some sort of bolt on each end to push the tops back together. Would that work? Would I be able to get the bolts on tight enough to force the posts back to being straight?
Or does anyone else have any other ideas? Please ELI5 because I'm pretty useless at this sort of thing. Thanks!
