What is better to plant after tomatoes: a list of suitable crops that you need to know
It is difficult to find a summer resident who does not grow tomatoes on his plot.
To obtain a quality harvest, it is necessary not only to follow all the rules of agricultural technology, but also to choose the right place for planting vegetables.
It is important to remember the rule of crop rotation. This means that one crop from year to year cannot be planted in the same area, since the soil weakens and begins to contain diseases and pests.
It is precisely for this reason that crop rotation is needed, to prevent problems from spreading.
If tomatoes were grown in the beds, it is better to plant green manure after them. They will help restore the soil, disinfect it, and also saturate it with nitrogen. Preference can be given to mustard, phacelia, oats, buckwheat.
Also, after tomatoes, legumes will grow well, which can also be planted as green manure.
You can plant cruciferous (cabbage, radish, etc.), cucurbitaceae (pumpkins, cucumbers, squash), umbellifers, onions, and goosefoot (for example, beets). Corn will also yield a good harvest in such a plot.
What should not be planted after tomatoes
Naturally, you can't plant tomatoes again, as well as related crops (nightshade family). For example, eggplants, potatoes, peppers, etc.
If you break the rule, the plants will have only diseases and pests. In this case, you should not count on an excellent yield.
