You can grow garlic in the same place for no more than two years in a row.
We tell you what you can and cannot plant in a bed where garlic grew.
What can and cannot be planted after garlic
The best option is carrots. Thanks to the phytoncides of garlic, they will suffer less from the carrot fly.
You can also plant beans, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplants, peppers, pumpkins, potatoes, and strawberries after garlic.
Beets and cabbage will feel worse in the former garlic bed, but if desired, they can be planted, having prepared the soil well in the fall.
Tomatoes are also not the best followers for garlic. But if the bed is in a sunny place, it is quite possible to get a good harvest.
It is forbidden to plant related crops in a bed where garlic grew.
These include onions, leeks, wild garlic, shallots, and flowers such as snowdrops and daffodils.
It is also necessary to take into account that the soil after garlic can be infected with fusarium, powdery mildew, garlic mites and nematodes.
Before planting new crops, you should dig up the soil, remove weeds and treat it with a one percent solution of copper sulfate (100 grams per 10 liters of water).
10 liters of solution is enough for two square meters of a bed. Or you can use fungicides.
