Some plants categorically do not want to get along with others. In this fight, some suppress the growth of others, and sometimes there is a mutual negative influence.
Vegetable, fruit and berry crops have enemies, and without knowing about them, you can only sigh about missed opportunities.
We will tell you which crops are best not to plant together with zucchini.
Cabbage
It doesn't matter what variety you're going to grow: kohlrabi or broccoli, Brussels sprouts or cauliflower, or even regular white cabbage. Because of such a neighbor, zucchini may face a lack of nutrients and moisture. Another problem is pests that pose a threat to pumpkins.
Nightshade
In this case, enemy number 1 is potatoes. The consequences are about the same as in the case of planting cabbage - disruption of growth and development, as well as attacks by insect pests.
Herbs
Of all the abundance of small and large greens, fennel should not be planted together with zucchini. Many vegetable crops do not like this plant. Fennel slows down the growth of its neighbors, and it does not matter whether we are talking about a leafy or vegetable crop.
Related cultures
It is better not to plant not only cucumbers, but also other representatives of the pumpkin family in the same bed. They will begin to compete for space in the garden and nutrients, the list is extended by common diseases and pests.
