Cultivation of vegetables own hands on the parcel – occupation very fascinating, but labor-consuming. However every year ranks of amateur gardeners are joined. For receiving good harvest it is necessary to know some rules of cultivation of vegetable cultures which will help to avoid mistakes.
Landing of seeds in the soil which is insufficiently warmed up for this purpose can result in bad viability. Each vegetable has to be landed in soil in the time specified on packing with seeds. If the spring was crude and cold, postpone the term of crops for week, so you receive amicable and strong shoots. It is far better, than to look after the withering plants from which harvest will be poor.
The following mistake – the wrong placement of vegetable cultures on the site. Here it is necessary to consider rules of compatibility and crop rotation. For example, tomatoes perfectly adjoin to onions on greens, salad and spinach. But also there is nuance: greens should be landed for two weeks before tomatoes. Potatoes not bad grow near bean cultures which should be put on one grain on potato bush. Also he well gets on with eggplants, corn, onions, horse-radish. And here with tomatoes and cucumbers to potatoes it is uncomfortable.
Cucumbers do not like to grow near aromatic herbs (except fennel) and potatoes. Their joint cultivation can badly affect productivity. Perfectly the cucumber adjoins to peas, haricot, tomatoes, cabbage and even radish. Plant cucumbers near long-term grades of onions which are melliferous herbs and attract bees, bumblebees. The harvest will be just excellent. Putting bed with cabbage, it would be logical to seat inside garden radish, fennel or salad which quickly spet and do not harm cabbage at all. Carrots have quite gentle disposition, she perfectly gets on practically with all cultures, but nevertheless it is better to plant tomatoes, onions, sage, salad or marjoram in neighbors. Avoid these mistakes, surely and in due time thin out the appeared shoots. If to vegetable cultures it is close, it will have an adverse effect on their growth, resistance to diseases and wreckers, harvest. Consider state between ranks, for each culture it is individual. The lack of timely weeding leads to decline in quality of harvest as weeds which are fast-growing and resistant take away the main part of nutrients from the planted cultural plants. Do not place bed in shadow, it leads to accumulation of nitrates in them (light on beds has to be not less than six hours a day).
