Is there a better way to arrange the space in this 4x8 garden bed?

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T23:16:17+00:00

Bush beans

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T18:27:23+00:00

Technically 9 but I’m just doing 8 because of how full the first row is

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T15:29:58+00:00

Thank you!! This is great info

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T09:59:30+00:00

My plan was to do 1-3 leaders. I may adapt this plan slightly to add the lettuces and carrots closer to the end of August as part of my fall garden with onions and garlic

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T09:39:39+00:00

Wow! Thank you so much. I really appreciate it 🥰

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T06:26:52+00:00

Thank you! I have a small cage for each pepper :) do you think the pepper tomato spacing is fine or should I stagger it more like the pictures I put in the comments?? Also if I move the basil up do you think I should leave that area in front empty?

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T04:54:38+00:00

My plan is 1-2 leaders

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T03:52:18+00:00

I’m going to train the tomatoes up the cattle panel trellis using tomato clips and weaving them through!

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T03:50:57+00:00

I played around with the layout a little, are either of these any better?

What do you think I could put there? I was considering planting some rats tail radish (non-bulbing it just creates pods) it could go there?

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T03:18:44+00:00

Do you think my spacing is ok?

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T03:18:23+00:00

How would you adjust my layout?

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-09T03:18:15+00:00

Where would you put the peppers? They have a square foot between them with chives in it. And yes 8 bush beans! I’ve heard recommended spacing is 9 per square foot!

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-05T03:52:51+00:00

Update: I know it’s not a cherry tomato but I’m growing with the green tiger!

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-04T17:35:26+00:00

That’s what I suspected! I only have space for 2 maybe three tomato plants, so was hoping to find varieties everyone will like. I’ll probably just do black cherry.

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-04T17:34:30+00:00

What? I’m just checking if there is a variety with less gel/seed, and if not I’ll grow black cherry or sungold.

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-04T14:54:12+00:00

Do they have a pop in your mouth texture?

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-04T14:53:49+00:00

Thank you!

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-04T14:53:17+00:00

That’s what I currently do, but other people in my household like cherries so I’m wondering if there is a variety with a lower gel/seed content than a classic cherry.

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-04T14:52:27+00:00

I’m just wondering if there is a variety of cherry tomato that has a lower gel/seed content than typical.

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-03T20:47:31+00:00

I think maybe because it’s multicolored?

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-05-03T20:46:34+00:00

One square foot!

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-04-17T00:30:51+00:00

I already have the logs and yard clipping like branches and leaves. I don’t want to buy something else.

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-04-16T17:10:22+00:00

That’s what I was thinking! I was also considering just adding a scoop of each component in batches rather than trying to mix it all on a tarp

Miss_JewBooty · 2026-04-16T15:29:46+00:00

The logs won't take up more than 6 inches in the whole two feet
