OPINION: Straight Line or Stagger Your Row

greenthumbomaha · April 14, 2012

I know most of you have moved on to container growing, but for those old die hards that still plant in the ground, do you plant in a straight row or stagger your tomatoes in to a continuous vvvvv type pattern. Not the best graphic but I hope you understand the question. I am planning a 25 X 25 traditional in ground garden and want to maximize the amount of plants so I can fit two of each variety. Suggestions are welcome!Tomatoville is addictive, I started double what I usually grow
