The correct proximity of plants is the key to a rich harvest.
That’s why it’s so important to know what you can and can’t plant next to zucchini.
Good neighbors of zucchini are early vegetables and herbs. For example, these are radishes, cabbage, spinach, dill, onions, garlic, cilantro, mustard.
As a rule, they are all removed from the garden somewhere in early July - before the squash bushes grow and begin to bear fruit en masse.
You can also grow nasturtium, corn, peas, beans, and tomatoes near zucchini.
Do not grow the same crops with zucchini - melon, pumpkin or cucumbers.
The fact is that these plants have common fungal diseases and it is better to separate them.
Zucchini also does not grow well next to related species - squash.
In addition, these plants have the same types of pests, which is why it is worth separating them.
