What plants an experienced gardener will not plant next to zucchini: not everyone knows about this

Zucchini is considered to be one of the most unpretentious crops, which produces a good harvest under any conditions.

But such conclusions are too optimistic.

Even such a productive crop may not bear fruit very well if the neighborhood is unfavorable, warns landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert for the online publication BelNovosti.

What crops should definitely not be planted next to zucchini

Potato

Not everyone knows that this crop has an extremely negative effect on the development of zucchini. If you make such a mistake, you can lose the harvest of both zucchini and potatoes.

The proximity of plants increases the number of pests and increases the risk of diseases.

Any variety of pumpkin crops

These plants compete too hard for important nutrients in the soil, so the squash will be starved of nutrients, which will negatively affect the yield.

Cucumbers

This vegetable faces exactly the same problem as pumpkin crops: the zucchini will not have the opportunity to receive normal nutrition.

As a result, the plant will develop poorly and produce a very meager harvest.
