What plants can ruin cabbage heads: observing the correct neighborhood
Cabbage planting should be planned depending on the influence of neighboring plantings on each other.
Good neighbors for white cabbage are potatoes, cucumbers, beets, peas, onions, garlic and celery.
It is not advisable to grow tomatoes, beans, carrots and fennel near cabbage.
As for fennel, it is generally better to plant it away from all other plantings.
What else is important to remember
The yield of cabbage is positively influenced by predecessors, namely potatoes, pumpkins, onions and celery.
Dill, parsley and celery will also increase the harvest - these herbs can repel many pests.
Another useful neighbor is marigolds. It is recommended to choose low-growing and thin-leaved varieties - plant them directly in the beds.
In no case should you plant mustard nearby, as it shares the same pests and diseases with cabbage. Another unpleasant neighbor for white cabbage is strawberries, wild strawberries, nasturtium and cauliflower.
