5 plants that disappeared from the garden due to Dill. What plants are "oppressed" by dill

click fraud protection

Having a plot of modest size, I practice combined planting in the garden. Early ripening crops - salads, dill, onions on greens I sow between rows of plants that grow for a long time.

Fast-growing greens have time to give a crop without interfering with the flow of the main crop - continuous savings. But not everything turned out to be so rosy.

What vegetables suffered from the neighborhood with dill

Every year in the spring, dill sprouts from self-seeding in the beds. I weeded out the tender greens in one half of the garden, and left some of the fragrant grass to grow in the garden bed, mixed with vegetables, to get seed umbrellas.

By the middle of summer, she began to notice that in some beds the plants looked lethargic and yellowed, although she watered and fed the plantings regularly.

I carefully examined the vegetables, but found no signs of disease or pests. I fed with complex fertilizer, but the plants continued to wither: they turned yellow, the fruits were tied small and tasteless.

I noticed that not all plants were sick, but only a few who grew up surrounded by dill.

I didn't grow up that year:

1. Carrot. Growing mixed with dill, the root crop turned out to be small, with a woody structure, not at all sweet.

2. Basil. Barely ascending, it decayed, although growing at a distance from the fragrant grass, it formed excellent juicy leaves.

3. Watercress. The first batch of this early maturing plant managed to give me an excellent sheaf of tender greenery. And the second sowing fell on mass shoots of dill and safely decayed, not even reaching 3 cm.

4. Tomatoes. They suffered least of all, perhaps because there were very few dill greens growing in the rows. And, nevertheless, in comparison with a clean bed, "dill tomatoes" were noticeably smaller, later bloomed.

5. Stalked celery. It sprouted poorly after sowing, practically did not gain weight.

It turns out that all plants release active substances into the environment that can inhibit or stimulate the development of neighbors. It is necessary to select companions for the same garden from cultures that influence each other fruitfully.

Important! Dill is placed no closer than 4 m to the beds with tomatoes, carrots, basil, celery and fennel, watercress. It grows poorly under fruit trees: apple, cherry, plum, pear.

Who does the spice get along with?

The phytoncides emitted by dill have a positive effect on growth:

· Cabbage;

· Cucumbers;

· Onions;

Peas, beans;

· Potatoes.

Compaction of these vegetables with spice will not only save the area of ​​the garden, but also increase the yield of the main crop.
