Companion & Succession Planting Garden planting and transplanting is now in full swing and everything we want to grow can be planted out including favorites like tomato & pepper plants, squashes, potatoes, onion sets, broccoli, herbs, or greens. One question remains, which plants make good garden companions with each other, and which do not? Plants affect their neighbors and the soil around them so we should try to place compatible or non-competitive plants near each other when possible.
A similar principle applies when deciding which plant follows recently removed ones (called "plant succession"). We don't want to re-plant the same plant or one that needs the same soil nutrients in the same place over and over; that would risk depleting the soil and depriving the subsequent plants of nutrients that they need to be healthy. Our second topic is succession planting - a great way to get more out of limited garden space and have your garden favorites available all season long. Finally, we'll cover a couple pest alerts and some thoughts about that lawn.
