Which Plant to Plant Where Garlic Grew

We are talking about common green manures, which are sown not for harvest, but to improve soil fertility. Experienced gardeners recommend paying attention to phacelia, which grows quickly and at the same Time can loosen even compacted soil.

This plant can be sown as early as July, as it is not afraid of heat, it sprouts quickly, and grows even when there isn’t much rain outside. In a month or two, phacelia grows into a lush carpet, which can then simply be mowed and left in the garden.

What Are the Benefits of Phacelia for the Garden

Mowed phacelia will not only be a good mulch for plants but also a great fertilizer for garden crops. Thanks to this green manure, the soil structure will improve, it will have more humus in its composition, and will also promote the quick growth of vegetables.

What Other Green Manures Can Be Sown After Garlic

In addition to phacelia, experienced gardeners recommend sowing the garden area with green manures such as:

• mustard, which not only nourishes the soil but also disinfects it, serving as a preventive measure for diseases;
• vetch or lupin, which enrich the soil with nitrogen, making plants gain 'mass' faster;
• oats, which require little care but are considered an effective green manure.
