Which statement is true?

• A. The minimum width of rows for large plants is 3 feet.
• B. The distance between large plants in a row is 6-12 inches.
• C. The minimum width of rows for small plants is 12-18 inches.
• D. The distance between small plants in a row is 6-9 inches.

Answer: (A)

Spacing depends on plant size and how they grow. Large plants spread widely and need room to develop, to be worked around, and to stay well-ventilated to reduce disease risk. A minimum of three feet between rows gives enough space to move between rows for cultivation, weeding, and harvesting, and it helps light reach all plants without crowding. The other options propose tighter spacings that don’t accommodate the mature width and maintenance needs of large plants, making them less reliable as general guidelines. So, the three-foot row width for large plants is the best general rule.
