Two major coronary arteries branch off from the aorta near the point where the aorta and the left ventricle meet. These arteries and their branches supply all parts of the heart muscle with blood.
Mound the soil into a raised rows to a height of 8 to 12 inches and 6 to 8 inches wide, spaced 3 to 4 feet apart. This provides loose soil for the formation of tubers and promotes healthy growth. Plant sweet potato slips 10 to 12 inches apart and firm the soil down with your hands to secure the plant. Water thoroughly to moisten the mound of soil. Keep soil evenly moist until new growth appears. Mulch with organic matter to conserve moisture and prevent weeds.
Plant small quantities of sweet corn in rectangular blocks that consist of a minimum of three rows. Plant the seed about 3-4 inches apart in the row, and space the rows 2 1/2 to 3 feet apart. After the plants are up, thin them to 12 inches apart. If planted closer together, the corn will have small, poorly filled ears.
