The crop association
The correct association of crops is an art and that is why laying out a garden so that there are complementary vegetables that are grown together is a way to make the most of space and soil. Unlike crop rotation (vegetables from different families are planted in succession in the same season), crop association attempts to minimize insect and disease problems.
Complementary plants
Complementary plants are the best that can be grown among them. I am referring, for example, to the cabbage family or green-leaved plants. There are also certain herbs that will help deter pests like peppermint.
Avoid closeness
The plants must have space between them to be able to grow and that is why this must be respected when creating a growing area. But equally, the plants that you put next will have to be plants that can grow together without problems. Then I explain some examples of cultivation of plants .
