Garden planning - 02/29/16
So as I posted earlier I'll be expanding the garden, we're going to be ordering seed soon and it got me thinking about seeding rate. I know its easy to figure when raising beans or corn or wheat, but in a garden it's probably complex.
is there a rule of thumb when it comes to Sq/ft per plant per type?
like saying a tomato plant needs X number of feet between them, or corn needs a spacing of 18" or whatever.
as a kid I remember just plunking in seeds wherever mom told us to without knowing why.
just curious if anyone has any advice on row spacing between plants, seed spacing in those rows and if there is an order to what produces best.
