Question: Distance between plants?

[POTAWIE]

That mulch is woodchips and sawdust from my planer and sawmill

in bed planting should be 18" inches or more...and distance between beds should be minimum 1.5 meters, if you have a enough space...similar to Potawie...I went to a habanero 3 acre farm here in my country, around 18,000 plants...they planted at 10" inches in bed, and the distance between beds is 1 meter...right know they have problems with the workers when they harvest, because the plants grew to the side a lot and they lost the space to walk between the beds...so when they are harvesting, they go through the plants and knock down a lot of unripe peppers...

Potawie nice setup...

I've got three plants in a four-foot space (concrete blocks on the end) and 16" between rows!

It's a variation of Square Foot Gardening - Square Foot and a Quarter Gardening!

By fall, I figure I'll have a 164 sq. ft. root ball!
