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.
No, pressure-treating is one method of introducing a preservative into the lumber. The wood is immersed in a liquid preservative and exposed to high pressure. This process forces the chemical into the wood.The type of preservative used influences the properties of the pressure-treated lumber.hromated copper arsenate (CCA) has been used extensively in this country as a wood preservative. CCA is composed of: copper, which acts as a fungicide; arsenate, a form of arsenic, which is an insecticide; and chromium, which binds the ingredients to the wood.
