And who knows, perhaps these examples come across anyone on the invention of a new type of flower beds, with a unique design and a minimum of effort and time during construction.

What type can have a bed for the lazy: photo examples of such structures

The first thing you need to understand that no matter how called territory planting - for the lazy or something else - a certain amount of work will have to invest in it. Another question - what care it will require in the future. Thinking on the device, you need to calculate what work will be needed in the process of cultivation, in full, well, what can be minimized or altogether eliminated.

Naturally, during plant growth is required:

• Weeding;
• Watering;
• soil fertilizer.

It is these core activities, we'll talk, but only slightly lower. First, it makes sense to understand how to arrange everything. Options there may be several. For example, their design may be recessed or raised, elongated and narrow or unmade. And yet, the most convenient to assume they made themselves beds of boards corrugated or bands. Their popularity is based on the availability, because the wooden box to put together not make much effort, as well as deepen the iron sheets into the ground. At the same time, raised off the ground structure is more convenient because it does not need much to bend as the seed at planting and at harvest.

The main thing - is to calculate and arrange beds the optimum size in width for a more convenient access to both the one and the other side of them. But how to do it now and we will investigate.

Location of beds in the garden - how to make the rows and aisles

Surely everyone knows that passages between landingsRather their convenience, not less important. And it is useless to try to determine their size through trial and error, trying to find the best. Sample calculations are made for a long time by many generations of summer visitors, but by the need to know a few rules.

As for the seats, the larger one and a half meters they should not do. Otherwise, it will be difficult to reach as the middle landing, and during harvesting. The length of the same is not restricted and may be any. But the path between them is usually made about half a meter, but there is a caveat. If the garden will be engaged in a large-build, then this parameter should be increased. Those. across the aisle should be easily placed adult man sitting "squatting" or on a folding stool (stool). Consequently, with regard to the beds and row spacingOptimal size is one that is easy grower. These parameters - just average. Post them, you can also, in any order, but still there is one little secret.

An important tip! Experienced gardeners recommend the location of the "north-south". Thus, together with the ground sprouts are evenly warm throughout the day. If the site has a slope, it is necessary to accommodation across the hillside with mandatory strengthening the lower sides. It helps you understand how to arrange the beds at their summer cottage, photo examples of such structures.

In order to achieve excellent results without much effort, you can use the method developed by well-known vegetable growers, for Mittlayder name. The principle of the device in this case is a little different from the previous one. The width of the landing area, in this case, should not exceed half a meter, but the passages between them are made in the 1-1.2 m. With this arrangement, planted vegetables receives more sunlight.

Another detail of this method is that the landing is performed in 2 rows in length, wherein the fertilizer is placed on the center strip. In this case, it will be evenly distributed at each watering.

In general, narrow beds on a method Mittlaydera very convenient, and allow to gather a good harvest even novice gardeners. Although, initially, they were held at the same level with the passages, but as the sides used small mounds of soil, nowadays more common wooden boxes. They are more comfortable and better retain moisture, and therefore increase the time between waterings. Well, think of more convenient narrow beds for vegetables unreal - the extreme simplicity of the service speaks for itself.

I mentioned about placing them in length from north to south for better warming soil in the afternoon. Yet, this method can not always come up. It is possible that a slight slope ground, and this can be overcome, but if it is significant, according to the cardinal location of the beds are not made.

Important! Sami shoots vegetables to fall asleep in any case can not be - they may die.

From frequent watering will save the usual plastic film with slotted holes in it sprouted vegetables. Thus, the plants will breathe and receive the necessary amount of sunlight, and moisture from the soil will not evaporate. watering Periodicity in this case it is reduced by 3-4 times.

And fertilizers are not all may be suitable. And yet, there are vegetables that perfectly get along together. Now it is the compatibility of and consider.

If we consider a mixed land that is not only not hurt, but on the contrary, it will create conditions for aid among other plants, it is possible to summarize some of which are in the garden vegetables table compatibility.

Photo	Title culture	Compatible with her vegetables to help the growth and harvest
	Onion	Very desirably present in one garden of celery, bush beans, iceberg lettuce, carrots and beetroot
	Cucumber	Increases yield at the vicinity of the beans, garlic, radish, fennel and cabbage
	Strawberry	Requires the presence of onion and garlic, and radish and beet
	Potatoes	The presence of legumes and peas helps to increase the size of the tuber and planted around the perimeter of "nails" (calendula) eliminates the Colorado potato beetle

For him to be comfortable to walk. Of course, not every garden leads to the aisle is very wide, but this should strive as far as possible.

Well. How to make a bed in the garden, we have understood. Now let's try to understand everything about the height, length and width in more detail and how it affects the yield.

The dimensions of the beds with their hands from the boards: photo examples and some of the nuances

As already mentioned, the size has a significant impact on productivity, and here's why. If we compare the beds, where planting is done directly in the ground, ie, seeds are below row spacing, when this arrangement is insufficient heating of the soil, it can not contribute to the growth vegetables. On the contrary, if the bed is too high, then the chances of quick-drying black soil in it because of the heat and wind action. It is for this reason it is not recommended to make the beds more than 30 cm.

As for the length, the size of the beds of boards is better to do in 2-3m. In this case, much more convenient to mount the board. In addition, in the case of one of the boards rot much easier repair. About convenience rather narrow beds mentioned. The nuances of such work quite a lot, but in fact, each will make the beds so it was convenient. It should be noted that much depends on the vegetables that will be on them to grow. For example, for cabbage width will be most optimum to 40 cm. In this case, it should be located in a checkerboard pattern in two rows.

Another question - what kind of material required for the manufacture of boards beds with their own hands. The size of the board in this case is not critical, but it should not be used softwood and thinner than 2 cm. Otherwise the beds wall will bend and quickly rot.

Photo examples of mixed planting vegetables in the garden, and what culture can not be combined

Now we give examples of how to combine the seeds on a bed of one, and which "neighbors" can hurt each other. And since these plants are quite a few, choose from them the most common.

	Basil	Peas and kohlrabi ...	... cucumbers. In this case, the basil will grow almost
	eggplant	... onion, beans and peppers	... peas and fennel
	courgettes	... corn, onions, beetroot and tomato	No similar crops

Generally, such knowledge is necessary for both professional gardeners and beginners. After all, if you think about it there is absolutely no sense to plant the beds peas and beans, thus taking place.

Examples of mixed planting vegetables in the beds, as well as some tricks

An example of a combination of vegetables in the beds in order to increase the yield can serve as a landing cucumbers and cabbage. Both of these crops require abundant moisture, and thus did not interfere with each other. Cabbage root system, unlike cucumbers, tends downwards, and therefore will not be intertwined with a neighbor. At the same time, the lush foliage of cucumber protects the soil from excessive sunlight, and thus retains the necessary moisture to both plants. As a result - increased productivity without the need to use different chemistry.

In general, the joint cultivation of crops on beds in our country is quite common. After all, it would be desirable for small garden plots to the table was a large range of environmentally friendly products from his garden, which sometimes can not be done, if you select individual beds for everyone vegetable.

As a result, a few years later, there may be certain diseases or pests that are destroying this particular culture. And by the undesirable growing for several years in one place not only of the same vegetable, but his family and plants.

An important tip! Not all cultures are suitable for sowing after the other. For example, if a long time in the garden grew cabbage, it can not be planted in its place the beets. In this case, neither of which a good harvest can be no question. But potatoes, zucchini and herbs will grow in this place is wonderful.

It is extremely important to organize the crop rotation on the bed, because of this, much depends. So try to summarize all the information in one table, indicating desirable, possible and inappropriate predecessors and successors.
