If you want your cucumbers to produce a quality harvest at the end of the season, you should provide the vegetables with proper care.
However, this is not the only condition.
It is also important to select suitable neighboring crops, reminds the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What can you choose for the neighborhood with cucumbers?
Cabbage
These vegetable crops will not compete with each other for resources. They also have approximately the same moisture requirements, which is extremely important.
Vegetables also have different pests and diseases, so the neighborhood will be quite worthy.
Dill
Interestingly, these two plants will go well together not only in a summer salad: this is a very good neighborhood. Dill will not lay claim to nutrients or moisture, so the plants will not compete.
It is also worth knowing that dill is a "magnet" for beneficial insects.
Legumes
There will be only advantages from such a neighborhood. The fact is that legumes have a wonderful effect on the condition of the soil, making it more nutritious and comfortable.
There is also no competition for nutrients and water.
