Companion planting
Return to DiscussionsI did an experiment once that demonstrated the legume effect. I planted a row of carrots intercropped with radishes. The same day, I planted another row of carrots, intercropped with fava beans. A month later, the carrots in the fava bean row were twice the size of the carrots in the radish row.
hi there ive done companion planting for a few years now with some good results, also it uses the land more effectivl. Try marigold flowers in with carrots as they draw carrot fly, A good book to read about companion planting is Carrots love tomatoes & Roses love garlic
.enjoy the gardening
