When planting zucchini, it is necessary to take into account the compatibility of this crop with other plants.
Avoid planting zucchini with "close relatives" as they like to share diseases with each other and attract the same pests.
They also fight for moisture with each other, which leads to rapid drying of the soil. Cucumbers, melons, watermelons, squash, lagenaria, pumpkins, momordica and kavbus cannot be planted nearby.
Cabbage deprives zucchini of nutrition – it can be said that it dominates the food chain. Almost any type of cabbage, except cauliflower, falls into this category.
An undesirable neighbor is potatoes, which also compete with zucchini for water and nutrients.
Fennel is not a friend to any plant at all - plant it away from other crops.
Despite the fact that zucchini is a hardy crop, it is important to keep them away from unwanted neighbors.
