| I was reading up on French methods of potagers and found they mix seeds before planting. They also plant very close together. Does anyone have any ideas of what seeds can be mixed during planting? |

I don't see any mixed seed rows, but I didn't read over them that well. http://www.frenchgardening.com/aupotager.html?pid=3104884985285027 The url above is where I got the idea. |
