Tomato Dirt: growing tomatoes, gardening tips, tomato facts Vegetable Gardening @ the Vegetable Patch: manage your beds with crop rotation and keep pests and diseases at bay Looking for a safe organic way to keep pests and disease under control in your vegetable patch? One of the simplest ways is planting your vegetables based around crop rotation. Crop rotation is all about planting groups of similar vegetables together in a different part of the garden each year. The length of a rotation system can vary from 3 to 8 years. 4 year rotation Crop rotation is all about moving vegetable groups from one bed to another each year. The first bed starts off with a mixture of roots crops (carrots, parsnips and beetroot) and vegetables belonging to the allium family (onions, garlic and leeks). The timing for when you rotate each bed varies depending on the bed and your local conditions. 5 year rotation By now I hope you have a better understanding about how crop rotation works. Over time the soil in your beds will gradually become more acidic which suits the way each vegetable group is rotated. 6 year rotation But what about potatoes? I love potatoes. Make more space.
