With what to plant beans in one garden. Vegetable crop compatibility

Even on a small garden plot you can grow a varied crop of vegetables and fruits, if you correctly place all the crops. Correct Neighborhood plants can both help in achieving the goal and hinder. Let's see what can be planted next to the bell pepper.

This is a heat-loving and whimsical plant. The achievements of modern breeding make it possible to grow it in the conditions of the Urals and Siberia in open field, but more often in these regions Bell pepper planted in a greenhouse.

The soil for growing pepper should be loose and fertile, retain moisture well. Top dressing is carried out six times a season with organic and mineral fertilizers. Frequent watering, but without stagnant water, allows the bush to form properly.

Most often, sowing seedlings in boxes is required, since the growing season is long. Already after the onset of warm time, seedlings are planted in the garden. If frost is still possible, it is covered with a film or special nonwoven fabric. Even in the summer months, you can leave the shelter if the weather is below 25 degrees. In such cases, it is preferable to choose self-pollinated varieties, which will give an ovary under the film.

It is important to look for enough fresh air and the bushes did not become infected with the black leg - the most dangerous disease for this crop.

The plant, especially in the first months, is fragile, so it is desirable to have a support. To receive more shoots, the top of the bush is cut at a height of twenty-five centimeters. Harvesting is done 80-90 days after germination.

Outdoor cultivation

What is adjacent to Bulgarian pepper in open ground? With many crops with phytoncidal properties and a specific smell:

• onions;
• marigolds;
• tansy;
• coriander;
• catnip;
• spinach;
• nasturtium.

Such a neighborhood can be used in the so-called mixed beds: when several plants are planted on small area land (bed) and jointly cultivated. In this case bell pepper planted at a distance of a little more than 40 centimeters between the bushes, and on the same bed with it, in the aisles, other plants are planted.

The combination of pepper and the described plants helps protect the capricious culture from pests, since the substances secreted by marigolds or coriander repel insects, and phytoncides prevent dangerous bacteria from developing in the soil.

In this regard, it is useful to use spicy herbs:

• marjoram;
• basil;
• dill;
• thyme;
• lovage.

They show a similar effect, without preventing the pepper from growing and bearing fruit. At the same time, a plant such as okra will protect fragile bushes from the wind and serve as a support. It is better to plant it on the edge of the garden.

According to the principle of similarity of care, good neighbors for pepper are seedlings of carrots, eggplants and zucchini. For carrots, this is considered one of the the best options in the garden. They cooperate perfectly with each other, reducing the gardener's labor costs and facilitating the work. Carrot seedlings repel many pests.

With which ornamental plants can it be planted for a good harvest? It is enough to sow nettles and chamomile in the garden. They will speed up the ripening process and allow the pepper to develop better. Dandelion has a similar effect, however, by combining these plants, it is important to weed in time, otherwise the garden will overgrow with weeds, and its owner will be left without a crop. From weeds, it is enough to grow several specimens along the edges of the beds.

Sweet can be planted next to tomatoes and cabbage - such a neighborhood, although not particularly beneficial, is quite acceptable and does not harm any of the plants. However, you should be careful that tomato diseases do not pass to the Bulgarian bush, since both cultures are nightshade.

Cabbage can be tricky because it requires a lot of moisture, and some varieties form a wide head surrounded by large cabbage leaves. As a result, cabbage takes up a lot of space, which is disadvantageous if the cultivation is cooperative. Although compact sweet pepper bushes can fit comfortably in the space between cabbage plants.

When determining what else to plant next to peppers, it's easy to settle on green crops that can be combined with many plants. These are chard, spinach, lettuce. They can be planted next to peppers to save space. They will not take up much space in the garden, they will require good watering and shade the soil, preventing it from cracking during the dry season.

Bad Neighbors

When figuring out with whom a plant is friends, it is important to identify its “ill-wishers”, with which compatibility is negative, which will not only reduce yields, but can also lead to the death of plants. All the work of the gardener will be in vain.

Among the plants with which you can’t plant pepper next to it is fennel. It is very aggressive, and the aromatic substances emitted by it can destroy the plantings of many crops, including sweet peppers.

Beet seedlings will be the first to take a “place in the sun”, taking not only most light, but nutrients - such a neighborhood is unprofitable for both plants, but pepper will lose first.

Among the varieties of cabbage, there are species incompatible with pepper - kohlrabi and Brussels sprouts, which compete for nutrients.

It is unacceptable to plant sweet pepper next to hot. This will lead to over-pollination of plants, as a result, sweet varieties will become bitter, fruits will decrease, and seeds obtained in the future will already give new variety precisely with sharp bitter fruits - a cross between sweet and hot pepper. It is better if these varieties are at a considerable distance from each other, which does not allow the combination of pollen.

It is not recommended to plant it near potato plantings. These plants suffer from similar diseases, so their compatibility can lead to the rapid spread of diseases. In addition, the bushes formed by potatoes take up a lot of space, limiting the space for pepper.

Unfavorable neighbors for bell peppers are beans and peas. Although these crops enrich the soil with nitrogen and loosen it, planted next to pepper, they suppress it. In addition, peas are looking for support on which they could wrap themselves, and standing side by side seedlings are good for this. As a result, the pepper may simply break or be "suffocated" by the legume.

Let's take a look at the greenhouse

Growing in a greenhouse requires a separate approach. Since there is little space in such rooms, and the spread of infections occurs faster, the selection of plants must be made carefully.

When deciding what to plant a crop with, gardeners proceed from two points: maximize the use of space and prevent the development of diseases.

Let's see what is worth planting next to the bell pepper. Planting pepper next to onions is also acceptable in a greenhouse; you can find a place in the neighborhood for seedlings of zucchini, carrots, white cabbage or cauliflower. The latter type is preferable because it takes up less space.

Any herbs will only improve the yield of peppers - they are compatible with many crops and are generally recommended for planting indoors. An important condition here is the ability to repel many insects and other pests, in particular aphids, whiteflies and powdery mildew.

The question of whether similar crops, such as eggplant and tomatoes, can be planted side by side is debatable. Since plants suffer from the same diseases, they can easily transmit them to each other, which in confined space, especially with poor ventilation, threatens with a complete loss of the crop. It is necessary to use such a combination with great care and do not forget about the regular treatment of plants and soil. You can try to grow varieties that are more resistant to pests.

Nasturtium and chamomile, planted side by side, will have a beneficial effect on the main crop, increasing its yield.

Planting peppers in a greenhouse next to cucumbers is not recommended because they have different requirements for growing conditions. Cucumbers need high level humidity, and the Bulgarian culture prefers dry and warm air, when combined, infections can develop.

Fennel and dill are not greenhouse plants and should not be planted next to peppers. The action of fennel has already been described, and dill is so actively spreading that it can interfere with other plants, besides, its tall peduncles and large umbrellas prevent the pepper from receiving enough light. Dill can also become a source of carrot flies that settle in its roots and are dangerous, first of all, for carrots, and its umbrellas become a refuge for aphids - dangerous for peppers.

Planting beets and some varieties of cabbage is also dangerous next to pepper - this significantly reduces crop yields.

Peas planted next to peppers, like beans and other legumes, are also very dangerous, so it is not recommended to plant legumes in greenhouses.

Thus, when deciding what can be planted next to pepper, one must build on the compatibility of crops and their influence on each other. Sometimes the list of what peppers can be planted with may seem strange, but more often it is verified data. Some information can be obtained from own experience and make your own list of combined plants.

Peas belong to the legume family. He came to us in Russia from South-East Asia. Even more specifically: it is believed that the birthplace of peas is Northwest India. Today, peas are grown in more than 60 countries around the world, in the fields and summer cottages. It is not necessary to once again mention the benefits of green peas, this is already obvious. But there is one interesting fact: it is useful to eat at least 3 kg of peas per year. Do you fit into this number?

Useful Neighborhood

We grow peas in both summer cottages, not occupying a separate bed for this, but interspersing it with other crops. There was an unoccupied section of the ridge - we plant peas. Turns out it's super helpful. Peas saturate the soil with nitrogen, which favorably affects neighboring plants. In addition, the roots of peas are able to go far into the depths of the soil, extracting nutrients from its lower layers. Part useful substances spills over to neighboring cultures. Thus, thanks to peas, plants receive additional nutrition. That is why peas are considered an excellent inter-row crop.

The best neighbors for peas in the garden

Since we have touched on the topic of the benefits of peas for vegetables growing in the neighborhood, we list the list the best neighbors for peas in the garden: where is it better to plant peas, next to which crops. Source of information: the book "Preparing the site for spring" (

Next to what you can plant peas:

• with cucumbers
• carrots
• potato,
• radish,
• corn,
• beans
• spicy herbs.

It is believed that these cultures are well combined with each other.

Bad neighbors for peas:

• garlic,
• clover,
• alfalfa.

It is believed that these cultures are not compatible with each other.

Pea precursors

Peas react sensitively to crops grown in the garden before it. It is not recommended to plant peas in the same place where they grew last summer. It will be possible to re-sow peas in this area after 4 years.

Good predecessors of peas in the garden:

• cucumbers, tomato, cabbage, potatoes.

Bad predecessors of peas in the garden:

• legumes (beans and beans).

It is believed that peas can be grown after any vegetable crops, with the exception of "relatives" from the legume family. If the gardener manages to harvest peas in the first half of summer, then this area can be sown with radishes.

Soil for peas

Despite the fact that peas themselves are able to enrich the soil with nutrients, they themselves require certain conditions for growth. We list them (source: the book "Peas, Beans and Beans", author Fatyanov V.I.). As for the soil:

• Peas love soils that are neutral in acidity. To improve the composition of the soil for peas, ash is added to it (1 glass per 1 square meter).
• Sunny areas with an acidity of 6-7 are considered the best for peas.
• Peas succeed on medium sandy and light loamy soils.
• soil for peas they begin to cook in the fall: they dig it deep and fertilize it, adding half a bucket of humus or compost, 35 g of superphosphate, 30 g of potassium chloride per 1 m2.
• In the spring, before planting, re-deep loosening is carried out.
• In a place where peas have not been grown before, nitragin is applied,
• Because the pea itself is good fertilizer, then after harvesting the stems and leaves of peas are recommended to be sealed in trunk circles under fruit trees or put in compost.

Peas do not like:

• weeds. It does not grow well in weedy and poor areas, so the soil should be freed from weeds before planting and the bed should be kept clean during the entire growing season.
• Waterlogged heavy clay soils. From dampness, the leaves of peas turn yellow, and the roots rot. It also increases the risk of fungal infection.

Favorable conditions:

• Long daylight.
• Seeds germinate already at temperatures from +2 to +6 degrees, but the regime from +18 to +20 degrees is considered optimal.
• The culture is cold-resistant, and even young shoots easily tolerate frosts down to -6 degrees.

Peas ripen depending on the variety:

• late-ripening varieties 100-125 days,
• mid-season 85-100 days,
• early/early 65-85 days,
• super-early varieties 40-65 days.

Cultures successfully planted on the same bed can help each other grow, repel pests and synthesize the components necessary for the neighbor. An illiterate planting of plants on your site can significantly reduce the yield: the forces spent on development will be given to the struggle for a place under the sun. The review will discuss what plants cucumbers are combined with and where it is better to plant a crop that bears fragrant fruits.

The study of biological patterns allows not only to increase the yield, but also save the budget without spending money on fertilizers. Each vegetable crop has its own preferences. This also applies to predecessors on the land plot, and neighbors during the development period.

According to the crop rotation, for cucumber as a representative of the pumpkin family, all crops planted before the current season are combined into the following groups:

• good, that is, after which it is better to plant cucumbers;
• possible, the growth of which practically does not affect the development of lashes and ovaries;
• bad, choosing from the ground those components that are also important for cucumbers.

Good and possible predecessors for cucumbers

These include legumes (with the exception of beans) and nightshade crops. Among the nightshade as the best representatives, potatoes and tomato are distinguished. Thus, when answering the question whether it is possible to plant cucumbers after tomatoes, an affirmative response is given.

Zelentsy grow well after any variety of onions. Successfully cultivated after color and white cabbage and most root crops. The best predecessors for plants bearing fragrant fruits did not include beans and carrots, as they are subject to white rot, which is fatal to cucumber.

Beets, carrots, radishes are what cucumbers can be planted after, they are often called neutral or possible predecessors.

Bad cucumber predecessors

The most undesirable crops, after which cucumbers are not sown in the ground, include representatives of the pumpkin family. Zucchini, pumpkins, squash - this is something after which it is not recommended to plant cucumbers. They suffer from identical diseases, feed on the same elements.

To avoid unilateral depletion of the soil available on the bed, it is important to ensure crop rotation. Plants must be alternated, and not intensively feed the earth. Main criterion crop shifts - nutrient dependency for a particular vegetable. One of the simplest (but not ideal) crop rotation methods is top-to-root rotation.

Cucumbers as predecessors

The vegetable is demanding on the composition of the soil and top dressing. You can notice this yourself if you sow the same variety on different areas earth. Beets and carrots, turnips and radishes, celery, potatoes - this is what you can plant after cucumbers, as they are less picky about the composition of the soil. Before planting cucumbers, it is recommended to fertilize the soil with both mineral compounds and organic top dressing. But these methods will not allow you to save all the nutrients in the ground. That is why cabbage is not planted next year.

The question is, is it possible to plant tomatoes after cucumbers, the answer is yes. And greens are a good predecessor for this nightshade culture. Also in the greenhouse, in the garden, you can successfully grow cruciferous, onion and garlic.

Wrong cucumber neighborhood

Weeds for anyone useful culture are a danger. But the threat can be borne by quite edible and familiar representatives flora. The mismatch between them is due to specific root or leaf secretions, which adversely affect adjacent plantings.

Unfavorable Neighborhood for Cucumber

Poor Compatibility plants with greens is observed with a popular representative of the nightshade culture - potatoes.

Allelopathy - the property to inhibit the development of organisms growing in the neighborhood - in this case is mutual.
Also, the vegetable in question does not get along with salad, aromatic herbs (dill as an exception). At the same time, the salad itself does not feel uncomfortable.

1. potatoes;
2. salads;
3. herbs (except dill).

Cucumber as an unwanted neighbor

Taste combination of cucumber and tomato fruits in one seaming jar popular canning recipes rarely fail. Also, these plants do not like each other in the process of growth. Is it possible to get bountiful harvest when tomatoes and cucumbers grow at the same time in the same greenhouse - the article will be discussed later.

Cucumbers are in many ways a favorable neighbor, if you do not take into account his desire to grab onto everything that is nearby with his antennae. Some vegetable growers do not recognize the interaction of cultures at all. Allelopathy may indeed be mild if the plants are cultivated outdoors, where any influence is smoothed out.

Popular neighborhood: cucumbers and tomatoes

Any tomatoes and cucumbers in the same greenhouse are bad neighbors. This common tandem cannot be called successful. First, vegetables have different preferences in microclimates. Secondly, the oppression of cucumbers by tomatoes in greenhouse conditions can also be explained by the agricultural technique of cultivation.

When alternating crops on a plot of land and when looking for an answer to the question of whether it is possible to plant tomatoes after cucumbers, you should familiarize yourself with the conditions of soil fertility. So, the tomato will grow well after the cucumbers. But it is recommended to wait for the season and plant something in demand from legumes at this time. Good nutrient soil will quickly be depleted in the absence of proper planting. And even abundant fertilizer won't save the situation.

Correct cucumber neighborhood

Location system planning vegetable plantings increases recoil from the ground. Knowledge and experience even help to properly compact the beds, which brings even more fruit. The chaotic placement of crops on the site can be explained by a lack of practice or time, but it is better to plan the planting pattern in advance.

Radishes, peas, beets, corn are not full list what can be planted next to cucumbers and count on productive results of labor, since the struggle for food is not typical for these vegetables.

Cucumber next to eggplant and vice versa

Both cultures sympathize with each other, so cucumbers and eggplants are grown in the same greenhouse very successfully. Also, the plants will not oppress each other in the open field, if the cucumber is timely placed on supports under the lashes. When planting vegetables in a greenhouse, sunny places should be taken under eggplants, since big leaves cucumbers can shade.

Cucumber next to peppers and vice versa

- lover of stuffy warm atmosphere, it does not develop well in drafts. The same climatic conditions are considered ideal for plants bearing green fruits. Therefore, cucumbers and peppers in the same greenhouse are allowed to be planted side by side. However, with their proximity, it is worth considering the direction of growth of the lashes so as not to obscure the representative of the nightshade culture. Sweet pepper varieties, along with cabbage and beans, are the best precursors for cucumbers in closed and unprotected conditions.

Cucumber next to zucchini and vice versa

Owners of small plots of land are wondering if it is possible to plant cucumbers and zucchini nearby, since both plants are weaving. Allelopathy for the vegetables in question is not terrible. In addition, cultures do not pollinate, despite the relationship. Their close proximity is permissible even on the same bed. But it is important to ensure that the zucchini leaves do not drown out the cucumber ones.

During frequent watering, which are important for plants with greens, you should not ignore zucchini, as they also like to receive water many times during the day.

Cucumber next to onion and vice versa

Both cultures are friendly to close growth from each other. It cannot be said that they actively help one another, driving away insect pests, but their close location on the same bed is quite acceptable. Is it worth it and is it possible to plant cucumbers after onions - definitely, yes. But after cucumbers, it is optimal to sow onions in a season in which it is allowed to sow legumes, which perfectly improve the composition of the soil. Together with onions, subject to this condition, plant a piece of land with corn, lettuce, and potatoes.

Cucumber next to sunflower

It is not surprising that sunflowers are planted next to cucumbers. A thick stem of a herbal plant will hold and guide whips with greens of any size. Thus, on almost the same area, not only fragrant greens, but also homemade seeds, a rich source of essential fatty acids, are successfully harvested.

Spring comes, the sun warms the earth, a hot time for the gardener comes. These days, it is very important to plan the useful area of ​​\u200b\u200byour site and distribute it under the beds occupied different cultures. Today we will try to optimize your planting together by talking about the compatibility of vegetables in the beds. Some plants, as it turns out, are friends, help each other and protect against various pests, while the latter, on the contrary, cause mutual inhibition of growth and even death. But we are primarily interested in getting excellent harvest. So, the compatibility of vegetables in the beds is a very important and relevant issue.

Is spring site planning necessary?

Indeed, why redraw your garden every year, if you can once and for all build and plant cucumbers on one, tomatoes on the other, and so on? This is convenient, but somewhat irrational. Each plant requires its own set of microelements, and it turns out that the bed, which has been used for planting the same crop for many years, is oversaturated with unclaimed elements. Or, on the contrary, devastated by the most important to her. Therefore crop rotation is necessary. However, on small plot sometimes it is difficult to provide a full replacement, they are forced to use mixed landings, and therefore for proper organization they need to know the compatibility of vegetables in the beds.

What can be the beds

We are used to the fact that our land is divided into neat rectangles, each of which grows one crop. However, there are a lot of options, and in order for your garden to be as productive as possible, you need to know the compatibility of vegetables in the beds. It can be narrow beds according to Mittlider, which require the introduction a large number mineral and organic fertilizers, as well as high and multi-tiered beds. The latter are quite complex in arrangement, but they are the best suited for growing several crops. In this case, you should also be concerned about the compatibility of vegetables and flowers in the same garden, because the close proximity of plants allows them to influence each other.

compacted beds

Sowing several crops on the same bed allows you to significantly save space and at the same time get good result. At the same time, we must remember: it is a little easier to observe the compatibility of vegetables and flowers in one garden than to plant several at the same time. fruit crops. Here it is already necessary to take into account the difference in the growing season. However, back to the bright flower-fruit beds. Why use such a technique, is it just for beauty? It turns out not. For example, marigolds planted near tomatoes perfectly protect bushes from various pests. Other flowers serve as tasty traps for insects. Plant nasturtium in the garden - all the aphids will focus on it, not paying attention to garden vegetables.

and fragrant herbs

And the greenery in the beds has long been proven, they do not compete, do not interfere with each other, but at the same time you save a lot of space and get a nice variety for your table. planted next to fruit bed herbs will give vegetables a delicious taste and will protect them from insects. Rosemary repels beetles that attack beans, cabbage pests do not like thyme, aphids are afraid of onions and garlic. Oregano, like marigolds, is a reliable protection for everything fruit plot from uninvited guests.

Every gardener, even if he does not have professional knowledge, should have an idea of ​​\u200b\u200bwhat the compatibility of vegetables and herbs in the beds is. For this, not so much is needed. So, fast-growing lettuce, radish and others spring vegetables and greens can be planted between pumpkins and melons. By the time the powerful stalks of the pumpkin have grown, the radish crop will have already been harvested. If you plan to plant shade-loving greens such as spinach, choose tall plants, which will become reliable protection. For example, it could be corn. Sunflowers grow well next to corn, plants do not compete with each other.

We discussed a little general issues, will now jump directly to views garden plants. We will consider the compatibility of different vegetables in the beds. How to plant this or that species, the neighborhood with which will bring him more benefit than harm, and much more.

Favorite peas: what to plant next to

This is a plant that gardeners do not like for its creep. However, it is worth considering the compatibility of different vegetables in the beds - and the disadvantage turns into a virtue. The fact is that it gets along well with corn, and its powerful trunks will be an excellent support. Thus, you will collect two crops from one bed and save yourself the trouble of tying up tender peas. But you can go even further and unify the garden bed by planting it around the perimeter with beans or carrots, lettuce, radishes, parsnips or turnips.

What else is compatible with peas? It can be planted among cucumbers, such a neighborhood will benefit both cultures. Eggplants and melons love peas, in addition, if potatoes grow in your garden, then be sure to scatter peas over the planting, its roots will enrich the earth with essential trace elements. But onions and garlic should be planted away from peas, such a neighborhood is useless at all.

Beauty Carrot

We continue to consider the compatibility of vegetables in the beds. Leading agrotechnical companies give advice to gardeners, recommending planting carrots along the edge of a bed with tomatoes and peas. It goes very well with various herbs. It's sage and rosemary. Therefore, you can make prefabricated beds with fragrant leafy greens and plant them with carrots. Or vice versa. But dill and parsley need to be moved away from carrots, such a neighborhood leads to a deterioration in the growth and development of the root crop.

Green onion

This is the first spring source of vitamins, which is loved and grown in every garden plot. However, today we are talking about the compatibility of vegetables in the beds. The list of plants with which the onion is "friends" is quite large. These are almost all the most important garden crops: beets and bell peppers, tomatoes and carrots, lettuce and broccoli. Onions are very well compatible with spinach, potatoes and cabbage. However, for planting to please you, avoid its proximity to beans, sage and peas.

bell pepper

A capricious culture that does not grow as well in our climate zone as in more southern areas. However, this can be slightly corrected by choosing the right neighbors. First of all, you need to remember that it cannot be planted on the same bed with beans. But the neighborhood with tomatoes, on the contrary, is very well tolerated. Do not forget to plant greens and fragrant herbs to make the most of the compatibility of vegetables in the beds. About ten different herbs can grow in the garden at the same time. Basil and coriander, onions and spinach go well with peppers.

Lettuce, a precious source of vitamins

Another plant that eloquently shows the compatibility of vegetables can count a dozen fruit crops, which from such a neighborhood will only grow even more magnificently. These are asparagus and beets, sunflowers and tomatoes. Experienced gardeners recommend planting lettuce along with white and Brussels sprouts, carrots and corn, cucumbers. Given that lettuce grows in a low, curly carpet, it helps conserve moisture by preventing the liquid from evaporating so quickly. Cucumbers love this neighborhood very much.

There are many ways to get off different plants on one bed. If this ordinary garden on a plane, and not a multi-tiered structure, then, in addition to interspecific competition, you need to consider the size of the plants. The central part of the garden can be occupied by sunflowers or tall tomatoes, cucumbers, then you can arrange onions and peas, eggplant. Or put peas on corn, and plant lettuce around. All these plants complement each other well.

Potato

Often it is this crop that occupies a significant part of the garden, which means that you need to carefully consider the compatibility of vegetables in the garden. Photos of garden plots of professional gardeners very often show classic combination potatoes and beans. Indeed, beans and peas are perfectly weaving along a potato planting, primarily benefiting by enriching the earth. Although the harvest of legumes will also not be superfluous. Potatoes go well with white cabbage and broccoli, corn and eggplant, garlic, lettuce and onions.

The friendliest neighbor - eggplant

Indeed, its compatibility with other vegetables in the garden is fantastic. He has no enemies, he complements almost any culture well. However, if we talk about the health and quality of growth of the eggplant itself, then experts advise planting it next to potatoes and legumes, in particular beans and peas. Leafy vegetables are excellent neighbors for eggplant. Experienced gardeners recommend planting next to the little blue basil and lettuce, spinach.

This begs the question: "In what order should vegetables be planted so that the garden bed is as efficient as possible?" We offer a scheme that is used by German farmers. They arrange a bed for planting root crops very wide, about 1 meter. In this case, the potato is located in the center ( early varieties can be planted in two rows, and later - in one). On the one hand, an eggplant is planted in a line, and on the other, a head lettuce, kohlrabi and cauliflower. All these vegetables can be alternated in one row. Two rows of spinach are sown along the edge of the bed, and the distance between them and other crops is sown with lettuce and radish.

Will take place as crops mature. The green umbel of lettuce appears first, it shade other slowly growing crops and save them from the scorching sun. Lettuce ripens first, then spinach, then radishes. About a month later, it's time for the head lettuce and cauliflower. Thus, the bed is gradually emptying, leaving room for the growth and development of eggplant and potatoes. Now it’s clear how to use the compatibility of different vegetables in the beds. How to plant correctly - will tell you personal experience, and for the first time, use the finished scheme.

Peanuts - exotic in our beds

Indeed, this crop is very rarely grown in the garden, but in vain. After all, agricultural technology is no more difficult than growing cucumbers, and you get a valuable and nutritious product. The compatibility of peanuts in the garden with vegetables is due to its high nutrient requirements. He gets along well with cucumbers, which also love high, warm and fertilized beds. In addition, any legumes can be planted with it.

Corn

A useful culture that is often undeservedly forgotten. However, it can serve as a natural support for trailing cucumbers, in addition, aphids do not like corn, which means that your cucumbers will be under natural protection. Curly legumes are also perfectly compatible with corn, they can be planted around the entire perimeter of the garden. These are beans and peas. She gets along well with melons and potatoes, zucchini and sunflowers. But the tomatoes are better planted away.

Tomatoes

A bed of tomatoes is not so conducive to the neighborhood, since voluminous bushes tend to capture all the free space. But you can use different ways planting, for example, arrange a high embankment in the center of the bed, on which to plant asparagus and basil, dill, lettuce, onion, parsley, spinach and thyme. Tomatoes love the neighborhood of legumes, so beans can be planted between rows. Carrots and melons will be an excellent option for planting in the nearest garden. But cabbage and corn should occupy another part of the garden.

Cabbage

As you already know, there are a lot of varieties of this plant, while at least white and cauliflower grow in every garden. It would seem that they can be easily planted on one bed, since you will remove the color one much earlier than its neighbor ripens. But in fact, they do not tolerate each other well, therefore, when planning a common garden bed, it is better to give preference to beans and celery, cucumbers. Fragrant herbs coexist well with cabbage, they help repel insects. These are sage and spinach, thyme, dill, onion. If the planting of white cabbage is not made too thick, then enough greens can be grown in the aisles, as well as radishes.

Cauliflower

It does not grow well next to its closest relative, but it perfectly complements beds with beans and beets, celery and cucumbers, sage and thyme. Dislikes tomatoes and strawberries. Broccoli goes well with all of the listed plants, but does not tolerate cauliflower at all, so you will have to form several beds for cabbage different types. Brussels sprouts- one of the most tolerant, it is better combined in the beds with other species. The only enemy is tomatoes, so tomatoes and cruciferous plants cannot be planted side by side under any circumstances. But dill and lettuce - please, you can add radishes and sage, spinach and turnips to the garden.

cucumbers

When planting this crop, make sure that there are no potatoes, melons and fragrant herbs, it is better to plant all the greens along with cabbage. Cucumber loves high warm bed, on which peas and beans, corn and lettuce, and radishes will grow well with it. As in the case of the previous example of a universal bed, we allocate the central strip for corn. It will become a support for cucumber, beans and peas, which can be sown not only mixed, but also together, in one hole. Along the edge of the garden bed can be planted with lettuce and radish, which will be harvested quickly enough.

How to combine incompatible

This question is especially relevant if you have a greenhouse. All vegetables love comfortable conditions, however, a large greenhouse should not be empty, and it is occupied by a variety of fruit plants. To separate poorly compatible plant species, film canopies are used, which divide the greenhouse into certain sections. This helps to create a kind of microclimate.

Summing up all that has been said, I would like to note that planning mixed beds greatly helps to save space and significantly improves the quality of the crop. Soil resources are used more evenly, and the plants themselves serve as natural protection for each other from diseases and pests. It should be borne in mind that the planting pattern can be changed to suit the needs of your garden, we have given only general templates. But be sure to observe the compatibility of vegetables. This simple rule always gives excellent results and does not require any additional costs and investments. From one garden experienced gardeners remove 11-15 kg of a variety of vegetables. Correct location plants in the garden also helps to save resources, as it requires less water and fertilizers. That, perhaps, is all regarding what the compatibility of vegetables in the beds is. A list of plants that are "friendly" and "not friendly" with each other is given at the beginning of our review in the form of a table. Use it and good harvest you are provided!
