Look! Square Foot Gardening Template

It seems like square foot gardening has been all the rage this summer. But if you're fan of uniform and consistently spaced plantings, consider using a template to take it to the next level ...

 
 

This template by Chiot's Run is made from a square foot piece of scrap plywood with holes drilled into it. Holes are drilled for 3 or 4 inch spacing of seeds or plants. After using the templates for the initial planting, the creator sanded and painted her templates to protect them from use in the garden.

I am a huge fan of square foot gardening, but this is a little anal for my tastes.

Plus, it'll never work in the real gardening world. Different plants need different spacing. Looks like a gimmick to me.
