How many Atlantic Giant seeds do you plant per hill?

And how far should one space their hills of Atlantic Giants between each other?

Thanks

I tried the transplant method and during the drought it was a total failure compared to direct sowing

I hope to do both again this season

I grew in extreme drought here and transplanting out worked fine. Gallon precut pot taped together and lined with newspaper, filled with presoaked and at temp soilless potting mix. Sprouted outside the pot then transferred to pot, and planted out at 5-7 days. Left newspaper liner on pot contents, just untaped and lifted carefully to hole. Pay attention to moisture and temperature of surrounding soil to the transplant at plantout and for the next 48 hours especially, like you would any plantout.
