Sub-claim "This method likely emphasizes soil health by preserving its …": 100% covered by S1 — The source states that the method preserves soil structure and the fungal networks plants rely on, which directly supports emphasis on soil health and biology.
Sub-claim "Raised beds are a form of controlled gardening, often used t…": 80% covered by S1 — The source describes raised beds as a layered method (cardboard, compost, mulch) that improves soil composition, but does not explicitly mention drainage. Coverage is strong but not complete.
Sub-claim "Building such a bed reveals a focus on sustainable or low-in…": 90% covered by S1 — The source highlights the no-dig approach as preserving soil structure and avoiding tilling, which aligns with sustainable or low-intensity practices, though the term 'sustainable' is not explicitly used.
All sub-claims have coverage above 0.5, with most near or at 1.0. The skipped sources are unrelated to gardening (e.g., crypto, AI, hardware), so no additional purchases are needed or would improve coverage.
