Six secrets of strong friendship of vegetables in the greenhouse
No matter how large the garden, enthusiastic dacha is still missing one, two, ten beds. About the greenhouse, and I do not say anything - every inch of the earth is painted. And gardeners try to place plants in it, not reflecting that they may need absolutely different conditions, and they can not be grown together. However, this does not mean that tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and eggplants will not be able to find good neighbors.
Conveyor Bed
First of all, decide on the timing of the ripening of the main crops and vegetable seals. The most painless option is planting some plants in place of others. For example, in the place of the radish that yielded the harvest, tomato seedlings can be transplanted, and after greenery - white cabbage.
The most tall - in the middle of the greenhouse
The next important indicator is the height of the plants. Cultures need to be cultivated so that none of them obscures the other. Therefore, in a standard greenhouse, it is better to form three narrow ridges, while the center should be taken under high growth crops, and the edges should be given to undersized ones. The same rule applies to different varieties of the same species.

Humidity and temperature
While some plants are rather patient, others may deviate from the norm by slightest deviations from the norm.
Therefore, consider knowledge in the field of biology and physics. For example, light-loving Bulgarian peppers and eggplants determine on the sides of the greenhouse or on the south wall. Physalis, tomatoes, cabbage and legumes, which simply need light drafts, put them closer to the doors and transoms.

On the beds with tomatoes in the greenhouse I "populate" the asparagus beans. Tomatoes bear fruit more abundantly. In addition, there is no room for weeds.
And nitrogen, which secrete rhizomes of the bean, nourishes the soil.
The greenhouse - per cell
If the greenhouse is one, and you want to grow everything in it (at least a couple of plants), you can divide it into parts by film, sheets of polycarbonate, plywood or even slate. The main thing is to organize, in addition to the doors at the beginning and the end of the greenhouse, the 1 -2 pane in the center of the structure and to choose the correct spacer material. For example, dark slate, plywood and metal heat up very quickly and instantly begin to give away heat in the evening, and polycarbonate and film pass light well.
Live Together
Tomatoes perfectly coexist with any green cultures, as well as with garlic, asparagus beans, peas, early cabbage and radish. Not bad co-exist tomatoes in one greenhouse with watermelons and melons. True, this option is not suitable for any greenhouse, because tomatoes have to actively ventilate, and melons and watermelons drafts are contraindicated. Therefore, if you can find a zone protected from drafts in a tomato greenhouse, melons and watermelons will feel good there.
Cucumbers are friends with Bulgarian peppers and eggplants. All of them adore warmth and are not afraid of airing, though, if the air is warm. Cucumbers can be arranged in one greenhouse and with white cabbage. Zucchini, perhaps, the most unique vegetables: not only will they welcome any neighbor in the greenhouse, so the yield will also be several times higher than in the open ground. One trouble - they need a lot of space, so it will be enough to plant just 1-2 bush.
Total dislike - what can not be planted in a greenhouse nearby
There are also such plants, which under no circumstances can not be planted in a single greenhouse. Leaders among such "antipairs" are tomatoes with cucumbers. Each of the plants requires their own microclimate. Tomatoes need dry warm air and frequent airing. Cucumbers, on the contrary, need moist air, frequent uninfluenced watering and lack of drafts.
Do not put in the greenhouse with cucumbers sage, and to tomatoes - fennel. And do not attach potatoes to cucumbers or tomatoes, even if you try to multiply several super-elite tubers.
Radish is growing excellent!
Radish growing in a greenhouse with peppers. Seyu seeds on the edges of beds near the passage, where there is less light. As a result, the land is occupied, and radish grows large and juicy. Peppers do not "complain" either.

In one greenhouse - cucumbers and peppers
Like many gardeners, I constantly face the need to carefully calculate square meters so that there is enough space for all the necessary crops. This is especially true for greenhouses, the space of which is limited. Unfortunately, our climate is not particularly conducive to planting heat-loving plants on beds. We have to apply joint plantings in closed ground, which is not always easy, since some plants do not really "favor" each other.
In different beds
Growing peppers and cucumbers about one greenhouse is a rather complicated matter, as they are not ideally compatible crops. Cucumbers, as we know, love heat and humidity, peppers do not tolerate heat, and an excessive concentration of water vapor can push the development of fungal diseases. So what if the greenhouse is one and arranging a second, even temporary and film (as in my case) is not an option?
The first step is to distribute cucumbers and peppers in different beds. Thus, we will be able to solve the problem of feeding, giving each culture what it needs in the right quantities. As for humidity, here you can go in two ways: to create a curtain for cucumbers from a plastic film or to keep a humidity of 75-80% in the greenhouse. This is the very middle ground, comfortable for both cultures.
In one "communal"
Let's complicate the task. We do not have the opportunity to plant cucumbers and peppers in different beds due to the arrangement of the greenhouse. This, incidentally, happens quite often. But in this case, we will be able to grow peppers and cucumbers within the same "communal". Here you need to observe the main rule: the distance between the holes should be at least 60 cm.
We plant cucumbers closer to the wall, then the condensate will naturally serve as an additional source of moisture for them, and place peppers closer to the aisle. Pumpkin culture needs moisture, so we will spray it, but not peppers. Their top dressing is the same: both cucumbers and peppers are fed with superphosphate, urea, potassium sulfate, humus, compost, non-acid peat.
Note
The lighting requirements for cucumbers and peppers are also similar, the temperature indicators do not quite coincide, but they are nearby. For cucumbers, fluctuations from 18 to 20 degrees are optimal, and for peppers from 22 to 25.
So it’s quite possible to grow cucumbers and peppers in one greenhouse and get a good harvest. I would advise planting another onion or coriander to protect plants from aphids.

COMPATIBILITY OF PLANTS IN THE GREENHOUSE - REVIEWS OF GARDENERS
COMPATIBILITY OF PLANTS - WHO IS FRIENDS WITH WHOM
The issue of joint plantings is being discussed more and more often, which means that readers have become more serious about agrotechnical science, and this has a positive effect on the results of their work.
I have been meaning to write a letter of friendship between the habita-D-ktels of my landings for a long time, and here is my report.
Melons, cucumbers and tomatoes love warmth, especially melons and cucumbers, so I plant them in one polycarbonate greenhouse 6 × 3 m. In early May (from 1 to 5) I plant tomatoes, usually tall (DeBarao black and pink, Bull's heart, Tiger pink), and besides, every year I try new products.
For two seasons now, I have not watered my tomatoes at all. Only when planting do I spill holes abundantly, put humus and fertilizers, and then my tomatoes grow without watering until autumn.
Even last year, when it was very hot in the greenhouse, I did not water my tomatoes - and they did not get sick, they gave an excellent harvest. There were no blackened fruits at all, and earlier tomatoes often turned black when ripe.
At the other end of the greenhouse, I plant 20 cucumbers. Varieties are different every year, but always equally good yields.
But melons are not encouraging. They were so beautiful, I was just happy, but the taste was disappointing: they were completely unsweetened. Tried different varieties for three years, but the result is the same. Decided to try cucumbers this year.
Pleased me in my greenhouse and hot pepper. I plant Astrakhan, Adjika, Moscow Region Miracle, Dragon's Tongue. I don’t have much, but the harvest is enough to make a tincture for the prevention of all kinds of infections, including coronavirus.
Last year, in the pyramid, I planted nine cucumbers that suit me, and at the entrance I sowed old June cabbage seeds in the last box. I thought they would not sprout, but they did, and all summer I cooked green cabbage soup with sorrel and young cabbage. And by autumn she tied two more heads of cabbage. Cabbage is friends with cucumbers.
But the amaranth rose as if by accident. I planted zucchini with my seeds directly in the warmed-up ground on the 20th of May, and the dried amaranth flower stood in a jar next to these seeds - so it was sown by itself. And a lot of zucchini was born, and the handsome amaranth calmly grew next to them.
Such a symbiosis is observed in nature. I wish people to live in the same friendly manner and get good harvests!

I read that garlic and mustard, if grown in a greenhouse next to tomatoes, can protect tomatoes from late blight. Is it so? What is the layout of the plants?
#
- Mustard and garlic contain and release a large amount of phytoncides, which inhibit the development of certain pathogenic microorganisms. However, it is not worth exaggerating the possibilities of phytoncidal plants. Garlic growing in a greenhouse will do little to help tomatoes. It is much more effective to use its infusion to combat late blight.
The recipe is this. 200 g of garlic leaves, arrows or cloves crushed into gruel, pour 3 liters of water, leave for a day, strain. Bring the volume with clean water to 10 liters. Spray tomato bushes every 7-10 days. Remember that garlic infusion cannot be stored, so you will have to prepare a new portion each time. More effective and less time-consuming will be the treatment with Phyto-sporin. They are sprayed with bushes every 10-15 days. But even he does not give a full guarantee of the health of your tomatoes, since he will not be able to cure already infected plants.

"Hostel" in the greenhouse
To make the most of the free space in the greenhouse, I grow lettuce and other greens between the tomatoes: basil, onions on the feather, and dill. True, so that everyone has enough light, I cut the leaves off the tomatoes. I water the beds regularly, otherwise plants with a shallow root system will quickly fade. In addition, I prefer spraying to root dressings so that the well-growing greens do not get too much nutrition and do not accumulate nitrates.
#
Is it possible to grow tomatoes in different greenhouse varieties of different hybrid varieties, and in the other - peppers? Are they pereopilyat each other? Is it possible to collect seeds from them?
#
- Collecting seeds from hybrid plants, both tomatoes and peppers, is ungrateful. As a rule, the fruits of the next harvest will be smaller, not so tasty and can lose color.
In the case of tomatoes, there will be no harm from growing different varieties in the same greenhouse; over-pollination will not affect the quality of the fruit. But peppers, when grown in the same greenhouse, sweet and bitter, red, yellow, orange and violet varieties can pereopylitsya - as a result you will have on the table the bitter-sweet fruits of "gray-brown-crimson" shades. Therefore, I categorically do not advise to grow sweet and bitter peppers in one greenhouse, and select varieties so that the plants bloom at different times.

I want to share my experience of cultivating "different-caliber" tomatoes in one hothouse without much effort.
My greenhouse is the most common, 3 × 6 m in size and with two beds inside. But the thing is that I plant plants on them in three rows. The first is at the wall itself. Then I plant tall tomatoes. Moreover, the bushes through one tied up with slopes in opposite directions: to the wall and to the aisle.
In the second row I plant medium-sized tomatoes in a staggered manner with respect to high tomatoes. Well, in the third row I attach short tomatoes, also in checkerboard pattern, but already in relation to the medium-sized ones.
So they grow all together, not at all interfering with each other. And it’s so convenient for me: the area of the beds is economically consumed, and it’s easier to take care of the plantings - everything is visible.
I plant tomatoes in trenches, in which in autumn I plant all the organics that I will find on the farm. And I don’t feed anything more with the plant: what is prepared for them from last season is enough for them. Instead of mulch - black covering material. Since I have a small garden, and I want to plant more different and unusual ones, I made for the strawberries two-tier beds 25 cm high with sides made of colored polycarbonate - again, beauty and convenience! And for raspberries, I dug trenches deep about 1 m and partitioned them at regular intervals with sheets of slate. The resulting squares were 1 × 1 m, and each one now separately grows different varieties of raspberries. I tie the bushes on both sides to M-shaped metal pipes. Also very comfortable. I also do not fertilize raspberries with anything, I just put everything weighed out from the garden (well, unless in the spring I’ll sprinkle some ash).

Raspberry grows on one side of my garden. I noticed that on a row the onions and carrots are growing poorly. What vegetables are not harmed by the neighborhood with raspberries?
#
- I do not recommend planting greens near the raspberry, with the exception of dill, which attracts insects with its fragrance and thus helps the raspberry to be more pollinated.
From vegetable crops, raspberries grow best with tomatoes, legumes and cereals.
#
I always have beds in a tomato greenhouse from east to west.
Thanks to this orientation, each bush receives an equal amount of sunlight. At noon, they do not cast a shadow on each other - and as a result stay longer in the light and start fruiting more harmoniously.
