Mels method was deeper soil in raised beds that is intensively planted

But the Most important aspect is to instantly REPLACE anything you harvest BY having a replacement crop ready "in waiting" either in flats
or pots....so that it's
one operation thus keeping the square foot producing.
Using this method a family of two needs only a 4' x 8' or a family of 4... a 4' x 16' foot bed.
i am using pots for broccoli , corn and tomatoes because the varieties are
designed to grow in pots.
There's allot of advantages namely being able to spread them apart if they get crowded
and or need some shade plus weeding is much easier too.
yes i do to a degree....on square foot
