When planting plants in beds, do not forget about the rules of crop rotation.
The same applies to the place where onions were previously grown.
Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told which plants can be planted after onions.
What can be planted
Onions "draw" nitrogen from the soil. But after this crop, the soil may contain a lot of phosphorus and potassium.
Therefore, it is necessary to choose plants for which this ratio of nutrients will be optimal.
Beets and carrots will grow well after onions. Carrots can also be planted in a bed next to onions. Such a neighborhood will bring a lot of benefits to both crops.
This bed is also suitable for planting strawberries. In the place where onions grew, you can plant eggplants, zucchini, cucumbers or tomatoes.
You will be pleased with the harvest of pumpkins, cauliflower and radishes here.
What plants should not be planted
It is also important to remember that for some plants, planting them in a bed after onions can be detrimental.
Therefore, you should not plant different types of onions and garlic here.
Many bulbous flowers will also grow poorly in this place.
How to restore soil after onions
You can enrich the soil after onions by planting green manure here.
Legumes and cereals can cope with this task.
In addition, you can sow this area with buckwheat, rapeseed, mustard or radish.
Earlier we told you that it is absolutely forbidden to plant near grapes.
