Dill is a useful and very aromatic plant.

Many summer residents grow it to add to dishes at any time. Such an additive can improve soup, marinade and other treats.

But when growing, some complain that the greenery actively spreads across the plot. But in fact, this is even good.

The fact is that dill helps improve the health of the soil in the area and can also repel diseases.

However, the plant obtains its nutrition from quite a great depth, so one can even say that it also acts as a green manure.

Plants make the soil looser and saturate it with microelements.

Dill is also capable of fighting pests.

Therefore, joint planting with some fruit crops is allowed to protect against parasites, viruses, and also to help improve fruiting. For example, you can plant dill next to cucumbers, radishes, cabbage, garlic or tomatoes.

But it is forbidden to arrange such a neighborhood for carrots, celery and other umbelliferous plants.
