What is the distance between seeds when planting for best results?

It's not like planting radishes or carrots. The trees are capable of growing 40 feet tall. If you plan to use them as trees then you should consider how tall you want them and space seedlings half that distance apart. If you plan on using them for food and cultivating as shrubs then 3-4 feet and harvest often. If you want to use them as a windbreak or hedgerow, about ten feet apart and top them at 12 to 16 feet. Planting would be simple in peat pots so that the seedlings can be cared for and protected initially. Then step up the pot size to 1/2 gallon and later to 1 gallon. Select for size and then place in permanent spaces. Of course, you could just plant a lot in the area you want to populate and later select the best specimens and remove the rest.

Hey Burrel, I just purchased the seed myself and have not been able to see how it is going to respond yet. Good luck!

The germination rate is great so if you plant them 6 to 8 inches apart, you don't have to worry about gaps. They are so robust that I think you'd be OK broadcasting them.

I wonder if the seed would grow in the correct direction. If it would emerge in the hole. If you use young starts or remove the soil from the root ball of mature ones it not hard to put them in the slots. If you plant as you fill the bag it's easier. Also if you lay the bag on its side for a week or so the plants get established and do much better than hanging right after planting

If you are planting in the ground and want a lot of plants, space the single seeds out 2 - 3 inches although it depends on which plant you are seeding. You may want to put a few more seeds in each hole for parsley, chives and cilantro. I have a small kitchen garden box so I put up to six seeds in each hole and will thin them as necessary. Germination is good but be patient.

i have not received my seed yet , apparently it got lost but the shipper is re-sending it to me.in the caribbean here we just plant in the soil , but for other countries with snow you have to refridgerate for at least 2 - 4 weeks before planting.

The answer depends on how you plant. Planting each individual seed is a pain because they are very small (like carrot seeds). I plantedd them in rows by sprinkling in the row and thinning out the seedlings later. I was able to cover about 50 square feet this way.

Hi Juan... It varies per packet. However, I will say I was surprised.okra - 68 ft row with 18 in spacingbeans - 18 ft row with 4 in spacingcorn - 31 ft row with 12 in spacinglettuce - 110 ft row with 6 in spacingbroccoli - 180 ft row with 2 ft spacingradish - 14 ft row with 1 in spacingcarrot - 33 ft row with 2 in spacingthe seed packets look exactly as advertised... but i price checked the packets here against buying the packets at the store and amazon was much cheaper. i think it's a fantastic deal.... as i said, i had to scout a new location for my garden.

about 100ft. If you have the time and patience to place the seeds on the tape, good, but you can buy seeds already on tape at home depot and other garden stores. dave

The box is fairly small... only about room for 6 clumps of plants. There are many more seed than you need and you could simply replace one planting with whatever you desire.

depending on the size of the fruit the seeds maybe upward of 10 or more...do hope this helps

I used an AeroGrow set, (which has very small amt of growing medium) but I imagine you could use small pots, or even seed growing kits/egg cartons, just to begin growing the seeds. When approx 2-3 inches transplant to larger pots and/or outside if the weather is agreeable.

Hi, I had this discussion with a buddy last night, you don't want to get too close, you will stunt the plants growth (it will generate roots with very short foliage, because there is no need to stretch at all for the light). I would not go any closer than 20 inches after the first few days after germination. The first few days the close light (8 inches away) will warm and blast through the shell of the seed.

All seeds have different lengths.Keep them cool and dry, I use silica packets near to keep moisture to a minimum in mylar packets in a labeled sealed jar.The seeds I received were not fresh.

a very small area. those small plants need to be about 18-24 inches apart and they don't cover much area. we got 60 of the small ones and after seeing them decided to get larger plants that we could plant every 3 feet apart.

2"-4" generally. You might get a couple that are bigger though. It all depends on the type of plant.

That size is about right,but very easy to plant as it doesn't require digging a big hole. I planted mine on a hillside and there was no way I could dig holes for the bigger pots. I just planted them closer together and hope some day to have a nice ground cover.The plants I received were very healthy, with good root mass.
