For 6 plants... I plan on building a raised bed instead of using fabric pots like I have done in the past (also done in the ground). I'm looking for thoughts on size of bed, type of soil and plant spacing.
So here is the plan a 4.5 Ft wide bed stretching 36 Ft at 2 Ft high giving each plant a 6 Ft spacing, as for soil its a toss up right now between 707, happy frog, and pro mix. My goal for my soil is to have approximately...
45% soil
25% coco(nutrifield)
30%perlite (#2)
I will be planting clones not seeds so the 2ft depth isn't necessary so I will fill the bottom 4-6 inches with gravel for drainage. I want to have a small plot with large plants. I will have both horizontal and vertical trellising cause my plants normally bush up to about 6- 10 Ft high and the same distance across (5-9) I hope to do a little better than that next season with this design though I think my plants will just barely touch buds at the end of flower. So thoughts and suggestions welcome. Its never to early to start planning for next season!
