The Secret to a Thriving Vegetable Garden: Companion Planting
What is Companion Planting?
Companion planting is the practice of planting certain vegetables together in close proximity to one another with the aim of benefiting both plants. The idea is that certain plants can help each other grow better, ward off pests, improve soil quality, and more.
Benefits of Companion Planting
There are numerous benefits to companion planting, including improved plant growth, pest control, increased yields, and better soil health. For example, planting marigolds near tomatoes can help to deter pests, while planting beans near corn can provide mutual support as the beans fix nitrogen in the soil, benefiting the corn.
