Grow Together: 50 planting partnerships to boost your harvests
I use my decades of growing experience to recommend which crops grow successfully together, with the emphasis on how long they grow together, governedĀ by their sowing dates. Plus I explain how to harvest in particular ways, to grow the tastiest and most pest-free crops as space-efficiently as possible.Ā
Grow TogetherĀ is about more than simply planting two different crops side-by-side: there's succession planting, catch-cropping, cover-cropping, companion planting, planting to aid pollination, and multisowing. The book has invaluable advice on how to succeed with each technique, using the best timings, spacings, and most suitable varieties.
My sowing dates are for Zones 6ā9 and are based on southern UK. Ā If your climate is colder, sow approximately 2ā4 weeks later until May, and 1ā3 weeks earlier from July. For zones of higher numbers, such as 9, 10 and 11, you can adjust the dates as follows: the higher your zone number, the earlier you can sow in spring and the later in summer through autumn. Sow earlier by 1ā4 weeks in spring, and later by 1ā3 weeks in summer and autumn.
