Hey everyone! I started my raised bed gardening with 8 plants including tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and cucumbers in a 6 x 3 ft space. I felt like there was enough room, but my family suggested adding more plants, so I squeezed in 11 total. Now I'm wondering if this will totally fail. Has anyone here packed their raised beds and still managed to get a decent harvest?

It really depends on how many of each plant you have. For example, my cucumbers grow long vines, up to 20 feet in length! I ended up growing mine vertically on a trellis because they were a mess on the ground. Just keep an eye on how they spread out!
20 feet? That's impressive! How do you manage such long trellises?
