One good thing about peppers is they like company. You can really crowd them and I do to take advantage of a very small garden. I plant mine with only 1 foot spacing. I usually stake them before they get too big and then have to reach in from the sides of garden to harvest. With the spacing I use there is no room to walk into the garden, but there also is no problems with weeds once the plants get big since no light will make it to the ground anyway. I think its personal, but I don't imagine you'd want them much closer than I plant mine. -JP- > What's the minimum spacing one should use between plants, and between > rows? > Tom >
