PLANT POPULATIONS & PLANT SPACINGS
www.kzndard.gov.zaPlant spacing, on the other hand, refers to the ARRANGEMENT of plants on the area planted. Example: Widely varying plant spacings such as 1 000 mm x 10 mm, 500 mm x 20 mm and 100 mm x 100 mm, all give a plant population of 100 plants per square metre. Question: What is the optimum population or spacing for a specific vegetable crop?
