By following crop rotation rules, you can significantly influence the yield of especially important crops, which primarily include nightshades for gardeners, and among them - tomatoes.
We'll tell you where to plant tomatoes so you can puzzle over what to do with the harvest.
Experienced gardeners take into account not only the varietal characteristics and requirements of tomatoes for soil and climate, but also the predecessor crops. That is, those vegetables that grew in a certain part of the garden last season.
This circumstance has the same effect on the harvest as watering, fertilizing and other care.
Where to plant tomatoes
The most correct decision that can be made in such a situation is to plant tomatoes in the former garden bed where they grew:
- cucumbers and zucchini;
- onion, garlic or dill;
- from root vegetables: beets, turnips, radishes;
- and also corn or beans.
Bad idea
The season will not end well if you plant tomatoes after cabbage, pumpkin, celery and carrots.
