Tagetes in our garden beds

in Actifitlast year (edited)

I spent today in our garden.

With @outlinez we did a lot of work and even welcomed guests - @deska89 and @nanast visited us.

Here are some shots of our cabbage beds. Almost every second cabbage we have a tuft of tagetis. We sowed tagetis in the leek beds as well. From the small seedlings that I grew, huge beautiful tufts of yellow and orange were formed. Why do we have so many Tagetis in the garden?

Tagetis is known as an ecological sanitation worker in garden beds because:

"Maintains soil health through excretions, inhibits the development of harmful nematodes, destroys leaf fungus and repels ants, whiteflies and moths from the vegetable bed while attracting snails."

The leek in combination with tagetisa developed very well - it became tall, healthy and large. The whole bed looks super fresh.

But with the cabbage, it turned out a little differently. Not all cabbages did well there. Cabbage leaves have holes - eaten by bugs and some cabbages didn't even manage to form heads. But of course, we also have nice cabbages that are very tasty and crunchy.

Today I harvesting the last gourds and harvesting and cleaning saffron crocuses.

The sky, colored by the setting sun watched from our yard - was very beautiful.

Thank you for stopping by!

Oh such beautiful flowers🥹 looking like a bouquet of flowers to be handed out but better, these are still rooted.

Nice. I've learnt something new about an ecologically beneficial flower- tagetis✔️

Beautiful step counts there, keep being active and healthy 💪🏽 Well done 💕

I'm sure that in addition to liking Tagetis, you've also learned something useful about them 👌. Have a wonderful week @whitneyalexx 🌞
