Growing Veg

Posted on April 19, 2024 by Phil Robinson in Plants

A great tip for anyone planting their own veg or herbs this year… TAGETES!!!!

Tagetes are perfect as a companion plant (A sacrifice to the pests if you will)

This is a popular technique to plant them around your veg and herb plants helps to keep the pests at bay, by masking the smell of your precious new plants and slugs also find the Tagetes more appealing. Plus they also look great!
