Here is my large garden that the two baby pumpkins will be moved too. This was a new garden that we built when we were fortunate enough to expand our backyard into an unused city cul-de-sac. The soil is very well amended there and this garden is adjacent to flood irrigation sod and trees. There is some deep watering that occurs under the garden when we flood twice a week (I'll show you a picture of that in case you haven't seen it). It's good because it is river water and thus not chemically adjusted. I haven't tested it. Haven't even tested my soil. I may not and just treat this like a big experiment. This raised garden was finished a little under a year ago and produced some really nice crops of various vegetables and flowers I have had difficulty growing in previous years.
