Part 6/10:

• Vegetables: Leafy greens such as kale, spinach, and various lettuces were chosen due to their nutritional value and relatively quick harvest cycle.

A crucial aspect of planting was understanding the spacing between different types of plants, particularly how their growth patterns affect one another. For example, herbs tend to grow low while some vegetables, like cabbage, require ample room for their larger leaves.

Planting Techniques

The planting process included considerations for seeding depth and spacing. For most seeds, a planting depth of roughly a quarter inch is appropriate, while some crops may require deeper placement. Taking care to avoid overcrowding while also promoting companion planting would influence the overall health of the garden.
