How Many Plants?

400 tomato plants, 1,200 beans, 4,000 pea plants to feed a family of six for the winter!  Plant them all together in (4) 4x25 foot beds by companion planting...allow the peas to grow up the tomatoes and plant the beans around the outside of the beds with tomatoes in the middle. The peas and beans will both supply the tomatoes with much nitrogen...and there is still room to plant basil right donw the middle...about 2-4,000 seed to have enough to harvest for dried herb all winter long!
