	Gardening : Square Foot Gardening
		Square foot gardening is a technique developed by Mel Bartholomew in the eighties, and it's gained a lot of popularity since then.
		His technique is based on a four foot square, but I have limited space and use three foot squares, plus rectangles in areas that are not big enough.
		I'm finding that three foot squares is a good size for me - it has to be about the right size for you to be able to reach across comfortably - though you're supposed to have paths all the way round.

		A square can hold a pepper or a tomato, a few radishes, a couple of lettuce heads, etc. By staggering planting and only using one or two seeds of each type, the gardener can have an ongoing supply of vegetables and still enjoy great variety.

	What is Square Foot Gardening? -
		Square Foot Gardening is a specific gardening system developed by an engineer named Mel Bartholemew after his early retirement.
		Square foot gardeners plant in blocks rather than rows, usually in raised beds, and reach in to tend the plants (often using raised beds with prepared soil) rather than walking on the soil they're trying to plant.
		Many of us on the Square Foot Forum follow Mel's methods to the letter, or did when we began gardening; others have learned and share ideas from other intensive gardening methods (and our own experience!).
