Call the function with 'C-u'. It will ask you some questions, use the
same '#' but you now can specify the "amount of spacing". 

Another option is using the wonderful CUA-rectangle mode. It's very (!)
powerful but a bit hidden, see https://emacs.stackexchange.com/a/16902
for documentation. It allows you to create blocks, fill them with
strings, fill them with integers series, insert/append text, kill,
reverse, align, sort and more.
