Hullo, fellow Balers :)
Well, Easter was celebrated by my acquisition of the years tomato and pepper plants. I usually plant 2 tomato plants per bale, and the same for peppers. Maters in one row, peppers in the other (rows about 6' apart). This time, I think I will stagger the two. One bale tomatoes, the next peppers (or something else) and so on. This because my tomatoes always seem to need more "wall" space. I tie part of each plant up, and let the rest sprawl on supports beside the bales, but they still get entangled. I think that if I put the pepper plants in between them, the maters will have more room, and the peppers should be okay, as well. There's plenty of sun to go around, and I will monitor the maters so they don't over-power the peppers.
Any drawbacks y'all can think of?
