By Shama Parveen
If you want to know how to do companion planting successfully, then we are going to tell you about 5 major tips, knowing which you can easily prepare a companion garden.
Do not plant together plants that are affected by any pests and diseases, that require different amounts of water and light to grow, or that are heavy feeder plants.
If you want to attract pollinators by planting companion plants, do not use any pesticides on the plants, as this kills harmful insects as well as beneficial insects.
Plant such plants in your garden during companion planting, which attract maximum beneficial insects and pollinators like bees, bumblebees, etc. Alyssum, basil, borage, coriander, dill, lavender, marigold, mint, etc. are pollinator-friendly plants.
In companion planting, plant tall plants with shorter plants that require partial shade or support to thrive. Zucchini, Sunflower, Maize, Cucumber, etc. are tall shade-loving plants and Spinach, Strawberry, etc. are short shade-loving plants that can be planted together.
The main goal of companion planting is to have the least number of harmful insects in the garden so that the plants can grow well. In this, the main plant which is affected by pests is planted with those plants which repel that particular pest.
You can implement the trap crop method in companion planting; In which such plants are planted, which attract certain insects in large quantities, and when the insects gather on these plants, they destroy them before they spread to other plants.
