I think you'll be okay with that spacing. But I think you might be able to
better utilize space in the tunnel with twin rows 18" apart and the plants
offset in each row. The twin row centers can be 54-60" apart so you can make
maximum use of available space in the tunnel. If you're growing big varieties
like poblanos, you may need to spread the distance a bit. Most varieties fit
into that spacing well.
