To get a good tomato harvest, it is very important to choose suitable neighbors for them.
Planting tomatoes next to certain crops is strictly prohibited.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication Belnovosti, agronomist and landscape designer, tells us what kind of neighborhood is contraindicated for tomatoes.
What should not be planted next to tomatoes
The main rule is not to plant tomatoes near other members of the nightshade family (potatoes, peppers, eggplants), as they have common diseases and pests.
You should also avoid planting tomatoes next to cabbage, pumpkins and strawberries.
Tomatoes will benefit from being planted next to green onions, asparagus, borage, parsley, mint and marigolds, as they repel pests.
