I might do that but it’s pretty crowded and it might not work because you’re supposed to do rows 30” apart with plants 8” apart. I don’t have a lot of space so I did rows 12” apart with plants 8” apart with beans in between the rows of corn.

This is in a space thats 4 x 15 feet so not much space and I kind of need to do it this way for my soaker hose setup. I’m hoping to get something out of it-as long as I feed it it should produce something....

All my stuff is on the perimeter of the yard and I’m trying to make more room. Normally it’s all I can do to grow a few squash and maters. I’d love to grow enough to can gobs of stuff for winter but just don’t have the room.

Trying to get better at it for when I do have the room.

When I get the room, I’ll probably have to do battle with deer and bunnies in addition to slugs and squirrels.

That one poster that has the tiny sideyard-daniel12 I think?

That one does miracles with small spaces!

If you are serious about canning and have a Farmer’s Market you can go to, go at the end of the last day, the last hour of business. The marketers will practically GIVE stuff away to you, rather than haul it back home.

Good way to get tomatoes and peppers for canning salsa and stewed tomatoes for cheap. ;)
