Get ready for an enlightening journey through the leafy pathways of your nutrient-dense vegetable garden, with an unexpected friend - aromatic herbs, that besides their innumerable benefits, also attract ladybugs. Here, you’ll find valuable insights into a horticultural strategy on companion planting and effective growth cycles that has been resonating with organic gardeners around the world. It’s absolutely brimming with potential to transform your green patches into bountiful areas at mealtime, and it’s called companion planting. This method can also help protect your plants from pests and diseases. What is Companion Planting and How Can it Maximize Your Salad Growth? Aromatic Herb and Leafy Vegetable Pairings for Perfect Salads: Your Guide to Companion Planting Understanding the Basics of Companion Planting In the grand orchestra of the organic vegetable garden, companion planting is the conductor, ensuring every ‘instrument’ - from the crunchiest lettuce to the most fragrant herb - plays its part towards a harmonious symphony of growth. Companion planting is an age-old practice where specific plants are paired together to mutually benefit one another's growth cycle and yield a nutrient dense harvest. For example, certain aromatic herbs and flowers from the Asteraceae family are known to repel pests while their leafy vegetable comrades like spinach and Brussels sprouts make excellent host plants. Top Benefits of Companion Planting for Salad Gardens Aside from creating the perfect crunchy and nutrient-dense salad with fresh herbs, companion planting varieties to choose from offers benefits such as enhancing the flavor of a variety of fruits and vegetables. From providing shade and nutrients, acting as a live mulch, to aiding in pest control by attracting ladybugs, these vegetative duos work together in harmonious perfection. The leafy green partners, such as lettuce, spinach, parsnip or arugula, help improve the soil by adding organic matter in their growth cycle and also grow well with members of the asteraceae family. Meanwhile, herbs like dill, oregano, or thyme invite beneficial insects, crafting a vibrant ecosystem in your very own salad green garden and fostering healthy growth for young seedlings. Vine plants can also grow within this setting, adding an extra touch of biodiversity. Steps to Implement Companion Planting in Your Garden Use your green thumb effectively by starting to companion plant different varieties of a cool-season crop like chard, which can attract beneficial insects and enhance garden health. Begin with the establishment of a vegetable garden containing leafy greens like kale, romaine, or arugula, then intersperse it with aromatic herbs, and allow some plants like squashes to sprawl as they grow. Select varieties to choose from based on their growth habits, nutrient needs, and pest resistance for companion planting. For optimal results, you might consider implementing a trap crop system to lure pests away from the main attraction, lettuce varieties. Which Leafy Greens Make Good Companions for Herbs? A man adorned with a plant on his head, featuring an aromatic herb. Pairing Lettuce with Herbs for Healthy Salads Lettuce is a low in calories leafy vegetable that enthusiastically embraces the company of good companion herbs in its nearby vicinity. Fragrant marigold, parsley, and cilantro, known for their pest-repelling properties, protect the wonderful addition of delicate greens like chard, while also attracting ladybugs. Not only does this introduce a variety of flavors to your salad mix, but it also makes them a great deterrent to aphids and slugs. Spinach and Herb Pairs: Creating Nutritious Green Mixes An excellent way to boost the health of cool-season crop like Spinach, which has an impressively high vitamin C and folate content, is by pairing it with herbs like dill and oregano. Pungent aromatic herbs deter many pests affecting spinach, such as aphids and leaf miners and promote a nutrient dense harvest.

This method provides a nutritious mix of different varieties of leafy green vegetables for your perfect salad and also ensures a healthy and pest-resistant spinach harvest. The Role of Kale in Companion Planting Whether it is the brassica family like the curly or Tuscan kale variant, they appreciate the company of many plants, especially aromatic herbs. Companions like rosemary, sage and calendula, not only repel cabbage moths and aphids but also enhance the nutrient density of your salad at mealtime, providing a powerful combo of vitamin K, C and calcium. Herb Companions for Romaine, Arugula, and Other Popular Salad Greens Aromatic Herb and Leafy Vegetable Pairings for Perfect Salads: Your Guide to Companion Planting Romaine Lettuce and its Aromatic Herb Pals While butterhead, with its crispy leaves and delicate flavor, makes a delightful salad base, it opens up many possibilities for herb companions, including those that sprawl and emit savory scents. Parsley, thyme, and basil work splendidly to ward off pests, ensuring your romaine and butterhead, as well as Brussels sprouts, remain in prime condition for when you are able to harvest. Best Herb Partners for Arugula Arugula, the leafy green with a delectable peppery flavor, can benefit greatly from being planted alongside herbs like dill and fennel, which entice beneficial insects and protect young seedlings. These companions, in addition to enhancing the salad's flavor profile, assist in pest control and make the growing process a breeze for young seedlings. Choosing Herbs for Less Common Salad Leaves From radishes to beet greens, broccoli, even down to the stalk of less common salad leaves, like savories and parsnips, all benefit from good companion planting. Plants from the Asteraceae family can also serve as beneficial companions. Aromatic herbs like sage, mint, and tarragon all make excellent partners, enhancing flavor profiles and deterring pests that might otherwise find their way to your salad greens. Lettuce-herb Companions: Pairs that Deter Pests and Promote Growth Aromatic herbs growing in a greenhouse. Using Aromatic Herbs to Protect Your Lettuce from Pests A well-planned companion plant team composed of different varieties can fortify your lettuce against invaders, protecting its soft leaves and enhancing the growth of other plants. Aromatic herbs, particularly members of the daisy family like dill, fennel, and oregano, are wonderful at repelling common pests and protect young seedlings, especially when combined with mulch. Not only do they create a more pleasant aroma around your garden, but they also inhibit the growth of harmful bugs, enhance the flavor of both fruits and vegetables, and contribute to a nutrient dense yield. Herbs that Stimulate the Growth of Lettuce While lettuce companions such as cucumber and beet help in keeping the soil moist, herbs such as cilantro and parsley can stimulate the growth and fortify young seedlings of lettuce. These herbs, including several members of the Asteraceae or daisy family, aid in maintaining soil health, catering for acidic conditions, and providing the necessary nutrients for brassica family members like lettuce and cauliflower to thrive. Herb-Lettuce Combinations for Optimal Soil Health An ideal pairing of herbs and lettuce doesn't just provide a well-rounded and nutritious salad bowl. The roots of these plant partners play a crucial role in enhancing soil health and structure, creating a conducive environment for roots to expand and access water and nutrients, and in turn aiding the growth of many fruits and vegetables. Implementing Marigolds and Other Herbs in Your Lettuce Garden Why Marigold is a Garden’s Best Friend Besides adding a splash of sunshine-yellow to the garden landscape, marigold, a member of the Asteraceae or daisy family, serves a more practical purpose, with its strong scent helping to protect nearby plants from pests. This aromatic

herb releases a strong scent that deters pests like whiteflies and nematodes, making them one of lettuce's best friends in the garden, and can also enhance the flavor of other crunchy vegetables. Diversifying Your Garden with a Variety of Herbs Brassica family members like lettuce, colorful chards, and cabbages, paired with a diversity of herbs, not only create a spectacular tapestry of greens but also weave in a powerful defense mechanism against pests and diseases. This rich diversity encourages the growth of beneficial insects, contributes to a resilient garden that flourishes across growth cycles, and ensures an able to harvest, nutrient-dense yield season after season. Companion Planting for a Sustainable and Prolific Salad Harvest In the end, companion planting isn’t just about maximizing your able to harvest yield, or the growth cycle of cool-season crops like butterhead lettuce and parsnip, although these are worthy goals. Companion planting is an excellent way to be in harmony with nature while embracing ecological balance. By doing so, not only will your garden teem with nutritious leafy vegetables and aromatic herbs for your perfect salads, but you will also contribute towards a more sustainable planet by attracting beneficial insects and enhancing the growth of many other plants. The crunch of that fresh lettuce leaf or vine-ripened tomato in your salad will resonate a deeper satisfaction at mealtime - the taste of your labor, your respect for nature, and the promise of continued abundance.

Besobela is an Ethiopian holy basil with a delicate and distinct flavor that is used as in Kibe (spiced butter), Berbere (spice mixture), Shiro (stew) and many other essential dishes as a rub or marinade. This fragrant, purple-flowered basil grows wild and cultivated in Ethiopia where it is harvested by hand, sun-dried, and pulverized for cooking. Our seed came from seed keeper Blair Williams who was given the seed by an Ethiopian woman who visited his garden when he lived in Los Angeles. In these photos you can see Besobela arranged on a taro leaf, as well as our dear friend Bilen Berhanu holding a bouquet of Besobela (purple flower) and Vana Tulsi (light green flower), which she took home to her mother to grind in to her spice mixes. #Besobela #Bassobela #EthiopianBasil, #EthiopianSacredBasil #aromaticherbs #ocimum #seedkeeping #seedsaving @bilenberhanu https://www.instagram.com/p/B8h5xJ5AjOH/?igshid=t0bk1tyasfet

The best time to start planting cilantro is in early spring, between the months of March and May. You can also plant cilantro late in the summer and allowing it to grow into the fall. Remember that if the weather becomes too hot, the plants will start to bolt, they will flower and go to seed, so choose your best time of year wisely!

#Repost @the.moonchildwitch with @repostsaveapp + ・・・ First impression review of @conjuredcardea conjur oil. The jars are definitely a full half ounce of conjure oil. The package weighed two ounces. The wrapping is beautiful! Hand stamped tissue paper and a gorgeous little sticker A cowrie shell is included with a business card; a very nice touch. The scent is very light and pleasant. I can't distinguish the aroma, maybe a citrus fruit and I'm sure there are others in it. (I'm also suffering the beginning of a head cold so my sense of smell is a bit off.) I immediately put some on my third eye. The feel of the oil is very light, not greasy but not watery. I'm going to take a nap after meditating and allow that which serves me to grow. I may take a spiritual bath with it later today. Can't wait to share more!

Essential oils as Natural Pest Control Why do plants produce essential oils? It seems plants produce essential oils to keep predators away. When I read this maybe about 22 years ago, it has been driving me to carryout various studies on essential oils for well-being of human, plant and soil. What is essential oils? Plant volatiles having characteristic aroma or odour. Many aromatic herbs and flowers are pest repellent. These herbs and flowers can be cultivated in our home gardens, farms and at home to manage various pests including mosquitoes and flies. Thus use of harmful chemicals can be avoided. We at ecoplanet have been doing this last 10 years and abled to manage bugs in our garden naturally. However, we need to yet come out with quantitative analytical results, which we will publish soon. For your information following herbs and flowers if cultivated along with other vegetables, they work pretty well to manage garden pests. Thee are basil, mint, lemongrass, rosemary, dill, fennel, sage, thyme, catnip, chrysenthamum, geranium, allium etc.. I am looking for sponsor for such reserach projects as well research scholars to stay and work in my farm and carry out further studies on this subject.
