I think it is an individual trial and error based on airflow, climate/seasonal rainfall...
Only can guess but raised beds do best for me...good drainage if a soggy Spring...I have lots of
spring water if it gets dry.

I have always planted tight but that can bite ya...if soggy, hot, and overcast for days.

I plan to go back to wider spacing this year after 2 soggy hot years.
For twenty years it was sweaters and a bonfire after sunset. The past two years we wished we
had an air conditioner.

Your plan seems great. All my raised beds are 3 ft and salad beds are 2.5.
