According to Palle Pederson, Asst. Professor of Agronomy at Iowa Stae University,
"A harvest population of approximately 100,000 uniformly distributed plants per acre will maximize economic return in Iowa regardless of row spacing. There appears to be no economic advantage to harvest populations greater than, or less than, 100,000 plants per acre." So to find the plant spacing for whatever row spacing you prefer to use, just take 43,560 sq. ft. / acre divided by whatever row spacing you want in feet,let's say 20 inches (1.667 ft.), equals 26,135 ft. of row per acre. Now take that figure and divide by 100,000 plants per acre equals 0.26136 feet between plants, or a little over 3 inches between plants. You will need to divide this figure by the germination percentage of the seed lot to find the final planting distance.
If your soil is significantly different from what they have in Iowa, you may need to adjust the 100,000 plants per acre downward somewhat. Additionally, historical row spacings have usually been somewhere between 10 and 30 inches, but have been as low as 6 inches (planted with a grain drill) or as high as 40 inches (old-time planters).

A farmer is planting a straight row of crops with 3 feet between each plant If 23 are planted what is the distance between the first and last plant?
To find how many feet are between the first and last plant in the row multiply 22 times 3. If 23 plants are placed, there are 22 spaces in between them. The answer is 66 feet.
How do you complete shooting star in Plants vs Zombies?
I completed it using starfruit pumpkin wallnut threepeater sunflower potatoe mines and random plants. You first plant a sunflower but instead of planting peashooters at first you plant a mine and keep planting sunflowers at the first row. And if another zombie comes and your still planting sunflowers plant a mine. if your finished planting sunflowers plant a starfruit at wherever it says to plant it then if almost your starfruit is about to be eaten plant a pumpkin on it to protect it. then when the time is right plant a threepeater and keep planting starfruits to end it earlier.
