Dill is so often used in cooking that any gardener prefers to grow it in their garden.

Greens are a fast growing crop that does not require much attention or a huge amount of fertilizer.

However, there is one important factor that can negatively affect the development of greenery - incorrectly selected neighboring crops.

What you shouldn't plant dill with

Carrots can safely be called the worst neighbor, says landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti". The fact is that dill will almost immediately become an excellent target for pests, which will ruin the green crop.

Basil is also a bad choice. The greens negatively affect each other's taste. It is also worth noting the increased risk of developing dangerous diseases.

Lettuce can be a rather dangerous companion for dill. The leafy vegetable more actively consumes nutrients from the soil, leaving dill with nothing.

It is also not advisable to plant dill next to celery.
