Autumn is not only the time for harvesting, but also a good time to plan plantings for the coming year.
Any plants deplete the soil, so it is recommended to alternate agricultural crops with others.
Let's figure out what is most suitable for planting in a bed where potatoes grew the year before.
What to plant after potatoes
In fact, the answer is quite simple. Potatoes are an excellent predecessor for almost all crops, except nightshades. These include peppers, tomatoes and eggplants.
Peas, beans and other legumes help restore depleted soil, but they will need help from fertilizers to do so.
But pumpkins themselves are an excellent successor to potatoes and will help restore the fertility of the soil in the garden.
Other root crops are usually not planted after potatoes, since the beds may be infested with wireworms, and this pest will not disdain them.
