It is also necessary to keep a small distance with plants that have a superficial root system, otherwise their roots will intertwine with cabbage and will take away part of the applied top dressing.
It is a good idea to place strong-smelling herbs and flowers around the plantings, which repel insects.
Between the heads
Mixed with cabbages, and not at a distance, compact plants are planted, for example, all kinds of greens that interrupt the cabbage smell and disorient insects.
It is also possible to plant low flowers with compact roots. Of the vegetables, only those that prefer the same conditions for lighting, watering and fertilizing (these can be zucchini, peas, beets, etc.) can be placed on the same bed.

However, the opinions of summer residents about such joint plantings are not unambiguous.
