The legume crop will amaze you with its extraordinary productivity if you plant one plant nearby.

Experienced gardeners take the issue of the correct “neighborhood” of crops seriously, choosing the most harmonious options.

Thanks to this, without additional feeding and other tricks, it is possible to increase the yield by at least 30-50%.

Mustard should be planted next to peas. This plant is considered the best "neighbor" for legumes.

It has been noted that peas grow better next to mustard, the yield increases, the fruits are larger, and the number of empty pods decreases.

Mustard also feels better in the company of peas. You can also plant strawberries, zucchini, potatoes, carrots, beets, radishes, corn and herbs next to the legume crop.

Fertilizing plays an important role. When planting, peas are fertilized with saltpeter, potassium salt and superphosphate (40 g per 1 sq. m). During the emergence of shoots, an infusion of fresh grass (nettle, dandelion, celandine, etc.) is prepared.
