→We recommend rotating the crops every year.
Rotating crops is one of those old-school gardening tricks that keeps your plants healthier and your soil richer year after year. Here’s why it’s worth the effort:
1.Pest Control: Many pests are crop-specific, meaning they thrive on particular plant families.
2.Disease Prevention: Like pests, many soil-borne diseases affect specific crops or plant families. Rotating crops reduces the risk of disease buildup in the soil.
3.Soil Health and Nutrient Balance: Different crops have different nutrient needs.
4.Improved Soil Structure: Varying root structures in different crops improve soil structure over time. Deep-rooted plants break up compacted soil, while shallow-rooted plants help stabilize it.
5.Weed Control: Crop rotation can help suppress weeds by disrupting their growth patterns.
→Rotating crops not only prevents common gardening problems but also supports sustainable,
