I always encourage experimenting with new techniques in the garden which is why I talk so often about interplanting and companion planting.
My experiments this spring involved a lot of very close but strategic pairings in my raised planters. I’ve usually been a bit more cautious with the spacing in my raised beds for a number of reasons. But I really went for it this year in terms of pushing the limits of what I can grow in a very concentrated space in my raised beds and, let me tell you, the results have been astounding! Some of them have knocked it out of the park, some of them could use some tweaking, and there are one or two that I will change up a little bit but absolutely repeat now year after year.
So, this week on Just Grow Something I reveal to you eight new ways that I interplanted crops in my garden beds, how I did it, how they worked, and what I’ll change for next season. Hopefully you’ll be inspired to really push the envelope in your garden spaces, too, so you can end up with fewer weeds, a higher yield, and more bang for your gardening buck.
