You can grow garlic in the same bed for no more than two years in a row.
We tell you what you can plant after garlic and what you shouldn’t.
What can and cannot be planted after garlic
After garlic, you can plant cucumbers, carrots, potatoes, strawberries, peppers, tomatoes, pumpkins, beets, and greens.
It is not recommended to plant onions, cabbage, peas and beans in a former garlic bed.
It is important to remember that after garlic, the soil may be infected with garlic mites and nematodes, as well as fusarium spores and powdery mildew.
Before planting, the bed should be dug up and treated with a one percent solution of copper sulfate (100 grams per 10 liters of water).
For every square meter of soil you need 5 liters of solution. Instead of copper sulfate you can use any fungicide.
It is also recommended to add urea (10-20 grams per square meter) and water the soil.
For reference
Garlic is a perennial herbaceous plant; a species of the genus Onion, subfamily Onion, family Amaryllidaceae.
