Question

Difference between check row planting and planting

Answer 1

Answer:

Check-rowing was a method of planting where each hill of two, three or four seeds was exactly the same distance from adjoining hills.

A field of check-row-planted corn had the appearance of a checkerboard, with a hill of corn stalks at the exact intersection of each line. That made it possible to cultivate the rows in several directions and made it much easier to keep a field free of weeds.
