Preguntas Frecuentes
How far apart should vegetables be spaced?
Spacing varies by crop. Tomatoes need 24-36" apart. Lettuce needs 6-12" spacing. Carrots need 2-3" spacing. Check calculator for specific plants.
What happens if plants are too close?
Overcrowding reduces air circulation, increasing disease risk. Plants compete for water and nutrients, reducing yield and quality.
Can I adjust spacing to fit my garden?
Yes, slight adjustments are possible, but spacing too closely reduces success. Consider raised beds or containers for more intensive planting.
How do I use succession planting?
Plant crops in stages (every 2-3 weeks) for continuous harvest. Space each succession the same distance. Stagger plantings by rows.
Should spacing be different in containers?
Container spacing can be slightly tighter since you control soil and water. Follow plant-specific container size recommendations for best results.
