I am diagraming a 1918 ww1 war garden but i was
wondering if I should do updates weekly or biweekly
I am asking since you all will be ones reading it.
I am leaning on doing it weekly in the diagram series
but thought I would asks to see what you all think,

wargarden2017, by biweekly, are you meaning twice a week or every 2 weeks? If you're meaning twice a week, I also lean towards weekly. Every 2 weeks might be good if there are minimal updates.

Are you actually growing the WW1 garden and updating what you are doing while following plans, or are you just showing plans you've gleaned from your research and how they adjust over the garden year?

here is copy of the blank diagram I will adding bed size numbers and bed numbers soon but thought you all might like seeing it blank. it took me 7 hours to get bed sizes and scaling right in spreadsheet. the spreadsheet was 720x960 cells to represent the 30ft x 40 ft garden down to half inch to correctly represent 19 beds and several hundred plants in plans. the full thing will be over 64 pages mostly diagram and progress charts. as well as predicted harvest calculations.  |

That looks similar to my garden, done in sections with paths between. Allows for close planting and can reach everything from either side.

Beds 1 thru 14 appear to have only a one foot width of walkway between the beds. Can that be correct? If so, that’s not very practical for safe maneuvering .

Paths do look pretty narrow. I like to have at least enough room to kneel down in between beds. However since this is a recreation of a wartime garden plan so I'm guessing the objective was to use as much space as possible for growing and little for paths.
I'd actually like to see some of these plans utilized just to see how practical they are by today's standards.

the spacing is correct.
if have a problem with the plan you should take it up with J.H.F. Heide
it is his garden plan he created the plan in 1918. the beds are not raised
so your concerns are not as bad as think.
