A: The safety of pressure treated lumber for raised bed gardens has been examined by several researchers. From what I've seen, the consensus is that the chemicals do leach out of the wood into the soil and are uptaken by the plants in very small amounts.f course, the primary concern with using pressure treated wood in raised-bed gardens has been with the arsenic in CCA- (chromated copper arsenate) treated wood.
1 Decking-If you choose pressure-treated lumber, you'll have a choice between 5/4 x 6 decking (1x5-1/2 actual size) or 2 material (typically 2x4 through 2x8, all 1-1/2 thick). 2  The size and species of the decking you choose will determine the spacing between your joists. 2-thick deck boards should be spaced approximately 1/8; most builders set a 16d nail between the boards as they fasten them. 2  5/4'x6 pressure-treated decking may be placed with each board flush against the next; natural shrinkage will provide the proper spacing.
