When you plant your seeds do you ever think about how far apart you need to space them? I know that not every seed will germinate but if they did I want them to be spaced far enough apart. It saves me time not having to thin them out. This is my recommended seed spacing I hope it helps you....out in your garden.
Radishes 1 inch apart
Onions 2 inches apart
Parsnips 2 inches apart (I thin to 4 inches apart)
Carrots 3 inches apart
Kohlrabi 3 inches apart
Beets 4 inches apart
Leeks 4 inches apart
Swiss Card 5 inches apart
Leaf Lettuce 6 inches apart ( I usually have to thin this)
Broccoli 15 inches apart
Cabbage 15 inches apart
Collards 15 inches apart
There are many vegetables I left off here because most of the time I start my seeds indoors like tomatoes. I think it is a lot cheaper to start your plants by seed and planting at seed out it good rich dirt does produce a hardy plant that will give you vegetables. Remember to buy extra seeds at your garden center for fall planting!
Happy Gardening...
