One serious mistake made when planting beans can deprive a gardener of the chances of getting a good harvest.
We are talking about placing the plant in the “wrong” place.
Unsuitable "neighbors" can deprive a garden crop of nutrients and make it much more vulnerable to pests and diseases.
But the right “neighborhood” will certainly lead to the gardener collecting a rich and high-quality bean harvest.
Ideal Neighbors for Beans
According to the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, any of the following plants will be an excellent "neighbor" for a representative of the legume family:
- cabbage;
- potato;
- strawberry;
- carrot;
- cucumbers;
- tomatoes;
- radish.
Planting beans next to any of these crops will guarantee a good harvest.
Bad Neighbors for Beans
But the following plants will have a negative impact on the “main character” of the article:
- onion;
- pepper;
- garlic.
These garden crops are very bad “neighbors” for beans: the plant receives few nutrients and grows slowly.
