I like 4' which in my case is two blocks (pavers) wide. I have long
arms and can reach to the center of a 5' bed, but if I am growing
"vertical crops" (pole beans, asparagus beans, cukes, cantaloupe, etc)
in the center of the bed, it is much more difficult to reach higher
fruit with the wider bed. And by the by, I think that is 25% more
space....
