What to plant next to radishes to make the vegetable even tastier: a proven trick
As you know, radishes can be planted after almost any crop.
The exception, according to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , is lettuce, cabbage and radish.
Radishes show good yields when planted next to greens, legumes and pumpkins.
In addition, many summer residents plant bush beans nearby - it is believed that this improves the taste of the root crops.
The yield and taste of the crop are also affected by the area allocated for radishes and whether pre-treatment of the seeds was carried out.
So, if you don’t mind showing off your harvest to your neighbors, make sure that the radish bed is exposed to sunlight for at least 5 hours a day.
The soil should be light and its acidity neutral. This should be done in the fall.
But spring is the best time to prepare the seeds. To do this, soak the seeds in water or lay them out on a damp cloth for a day, and then dip them in warm water with a growth simulator for 20 minutes.
After this procedure, all you have to do is dry the seeds and start sowing right away.
