I'm fond of saying that there's no such thing as a stupid question, but the more I think about it, the more I think that this one is pretty daft! What the hell, I'm going to ask anyway...
My plot (can't remember the exact dimensions) is a standard rectangular plot with the long axis running almost exactly east-west.
This year was my first year, so I basically bunged loads in just to see how it grew. I am making some plans for next year and may have just obtained enough old floorboards to make raised beds for most of the plot.
When I threw stuff in this year, I planted the rows along the short north - south axis. It seemed the right thing to do, most of the other plots were done that way.
Is there any advantage to doing it this way, or would east - west rows be better?
