For your Grow Media ratio, since you are using Sta-Green and the bark with composted manure, I would increase the perlite ratio to a 3:2:2 composition..

Fertilizer strip - across the narrow dimension centered for tomatoes amd peppers. 2 tomato plants per EarthTainer, same for peppers. Cukes - fertilizer strip centered in the long dimension. Plant 4 plants each evenly spaced along both outer edges of the 'Tainer. Corn - mix 3 cups fert deep in the Grow Media (no strip) plant 3 rows of 5 stalks each row.
