How Many Plants Fit in Your Garden?
Calculate plant count by bed size and recommended spacing. For vegetables, flowers, herbs, and shrubs.
Indian Kitchen Garden
Tomato: 2 ft। Mirchi: 1.5 ft। Methi/palak: broadcast। Bhindi: 1.5 ft। Brinjal: 2 ft। Cucumber/lauki: 3-4 ft (needs support)। Grow bags (12"): 1 tomato or 2 mirchi per bag। Terrace gardening: most efficient space use।
Companion Planting
Marigold + vegetables (pest control)। Tulsi + tomato। Methi as ground cover between larger plants।
⚡ CalcWolf Insight
Companion planting can effectively reduce spacing needs. Basil planted between tomato plants repels aphids. Marigolds planted around the garden perimeter deter many common pests. Tall plants (corn, tomatoes) on the north side of the bed prevent shading shorter plants.
