A greenhouse built for each individual vegetable is an unaffordable luxury for many summer residents.

This is why many crops are often forced to crowd into one greenhouse in order to save space for beds.

The main thing is that all plants receive sufficient light, moisture, heat and nutrition.

Therefore, if you place the crops correctly, you can easily grow peppers and tomatoes in the same greenhouse.

When planting crops, maintain a checkerboard pattern.

This means that at the first stage, tall tomato varieties should be placed in the soil at a distance of 40 cm from each other, and only then can pepper bushes be planted between them.

Alternatively, plant peppers along tomato rows. In this case, the distance between them should not be less than 20 cm.

Finally, you can place peppers and tomatoes on opposite sides of the greenhouse.
