Thin out garden rows for better yields and quality
The byword for today’s garden is thinning. Pull excess seedlings to give vegetables room to grow. Remove crowded lettuce to leave strong plants 4 to 8 inches apart. Seedlings removed can be saved. Rapid growth depends on space, improving eating quality, production, and size.
