Which vegetable should be planted next to tomatoes 0 13

It is recommended to plant a low-calorie and vitamin-rich root vegetable—beetroot—next to tomatoes in the garden bed.

The roots of this beneficial vegetable release substances into the soil that act as a natural antibiotic. This positively affects the tomatoes, improving the taste quality of their fruits.

Beetroot is best planted not in the center of the tomato bed, but at the edges.

It is beneficial to incorporate beet greens and small plants into the soil of the beds where tomatoes are growing. This fertilizer contains boron and other important substances that promote the development of tomatoes.

Additionally, beetroot helps tomatoes fight against late blight.
