Well I just put them in at one per foot. I'll see how the spring goes and
maybe think about 4 per foot in the fall (I planted seedlings from the
nursery which come in four-packs).

I put cutworm collars on them but a closer reading of my books suggests
that maybe I didn't have to. Has anybody had a cutworm chomp on theirs?
