Our beloved 6 acres - how to place on them everything that you want to grow on your land? Saving every piece of land, our gardeners and gardeners work tirelessly.
Two full-fledged greenhouses in this area do not fit. How to choose, under what culture to take the greenhouse land? Probably everyone would answer in unison: under tomatoes!
That's right, in our temperate climate, they ripen on the bushes only in the greenhouse. But neighbors can be added to them. What is planted in a greenhouse with tomatoes?
Who is good with tomato?
Vegetable - like a man. In good company and he is good. But how to determine what will suit tomato in a closed limited area. What can be planted and grown in a greenhouse with tomatoes?
Is he - pretty capricious culture and not easy to care. In the greenhouse, he will always be the owner. Therefore, the culture for the neighborhood with him should be selected similar in terms of growing conditions.
Cucumbers
Consider the two most popular crops for growing in the greenhouse - tomatoes and cucumbers. In one greenhouse they do not belong, only as a last resort and under certain conditions. The difference in the conditions that they need:
Culture | Watering | Ventilation | Fertilizer | Temperature |
Tomato | watering only at the root | Yes | necessarily | moderate |
Cucumbers | watering and sprinkling | not | not required other than organic | thermophilic |
If possible, it is better to take out cucumbers in open ground on a man-made garden bed under a film, they will get accustomed perfectly there and give a harvest. Tomatoes are best left in the greenhouse.
Peppers
Another greenhouse culture, especially in Siberia and the northern regions - sweet pepper. They are with tomato refer to one type - Solanaceae. Greenhouse compatible, since their growing conditions are similar.
But there is one in their cohabitation the problem is the microclimate in the greenhouse. Tomatoes like warm, but dry air, that is, the temperature for them should be high, but with good air movement. And pepper, on the contrary, loves heat and moisture to match cucumbers.
Some gardeners still grow peppers on the same bed with tomatoes.
At the same time, a “chess” scheme is practiced, which provides sufficient light access for both cultures.
Pepper is helpful presence of tomatoes in the neighborhood. The substances contained in them scare away aphids, which pepper loves very much.
Cabbage and Salads
They get along perfectly with the early varieties of white cabbage, Beijing cabbage, which generally used to seal tomatoesby planting it at their feet. Perfectly get along with tomato and leafy salads.
Radish, onion and garlic
This neighborhood will benefit all cultures.. Onions with tomatoes are planted only that which is grown on greens. With this neighborhood need to provide enough light radish, onion and garlic.
Strawberry
Strawberries (strawberries) coexist well with tomatoes in the same room (greenhouse). Both cultures do not like high humidity, they constant airing is required in order to avoid infection with fungal diseases. Besides, draft contributes to pollination of that and other cultures.
Strawberry Bushes alternate with planting tomatoes according to the scheme 60 x 45 cm. Wherein strawberry nutrition should be no less than 30 x 15 cm on the bush.
The best crops for joint cultivation with tomatoes.
From the fact that it is best to plant in a greenhouse with tomatoes (tomatoes), you can make a small list:
- legumes (beans, beans);
- watermelons;
- radish;
- Melissa;
- celery;
- parsley;
- basil.
Incompatible cultures
- dill;
- kohlrabi;
- fennel.
Properly selected vegetables for joint cultivation will not only not harm each other, but also will help increase yields up to 20-25%.
Each vegetable has its own "flat"
For those who are still trying to grow poorly compatible vegetables in one greenhouse, there is a way out. it space organization. What can you plant tomatoes in the greenhouse? The most "greenhouse" plants are tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers and eggplants. Their compatibility leaves much to be desired, so they should separate from each other.
If the greenhouse has two entrances from opposite sidesit is easier to place cultures in it. With its sufficient width, three rows are made. Tomatoes are planted in the middle - this part of the greenhouse is best ventilated. Pepper is placed on the north side, cucumbers or eggplants on the southern garden. Although it is better to exclude cucumbers.
If there is one door in the greenhouse, and on the opposite side only a window, crops can be arranged in the following order: tomatoes are planted near the doors, they must be separated from the rest of the area either by film, or slate or plywood. The best material is film.
Then cucumbers are planted, followed by eggplants - both vegetables are very thermophilic and in the middle they will be fine. And last but not least - peppers are planted near the window, they prefer a cooler atmosphere.
Locating not very compatible crops in one greenhouse need to be prepared for some decrease in yield each of the cultures.
Today, manufacturers of greenhouses offer various designs, in particular, their internal. With the help of partitions-modules, you can create separate rooms with the desired microclimate in them that will allow to combine "incompatible" in one greenhouse and not to think about what to plant tomatoes with.
