Dense planting in earthboxes
Every year I have seeds for more cultivars than I really have room to plant. Without dedicating too much space, I’m interested to find a way to trial new ones all the way to fruit to decide if they deserve one or more full spots in future growing seasons.
One idea I had was to grow four plants as a single stem side-by-side in an earthbox. My thought is without letting any additional suckers grow, I could pretty efficiently grow four plants.
Has anyone tried something similar? I know the standard rec is two plants but I’m curious what I could pull off with judicious pruning.
