Thinning & Spacing Seedlings

Tip:

Small seeds such as carrots and lettuce can be sprinkled in double rows or blocks, then thinned after sprouting to make enough room for full grown plants, depending on the size of the variety.
For large plants like cabbage or sunflowers, plant 3 or 4 seeds in each spot you want them to grow, then thin out all but the strongest seedling. Know the average size of the varieties you plant, then leave enough room between plants for adequate growing space and good air circulation.
