Plant succession table — what to plant after what
Pe scurt: Not all plants are good predecessors for others. A good successor after a good predecessor means healthier soil and higher yields without additional inputs.
What to plant after what — predecessors and successors
Excellent predecessors:
- Legumes (beans, peas, broad beans) — fix nitrogen from the air. Plant after them: cabbage, lettuce, carrots
- Green manures (mustard, phacelia, oil radish) — cleanse the soil
- Onions and garlic — antifungal properties
Good succession combinations:
- Peas/beans → cabbage, broccoli, lettuce, carrots
- Potatoes → cabbage
- Onions → carrots, lettuce, cucumber
Bad combinations — avoid:
- Tomato → potato (same nightshade family)
- Cabbage → radish or arugula (same brassica family)
- Carrots → parsley or celery (same carrot family)
Practical tip:
Remember botanical families, not individual species. Treat everything within the family as "the same thing".zielnamanufaktura.pl
