Yes, but what about using planned rotation cycle so that you aren't following
potatoes with tomatoes, making sure that plant nitrogen-hungry plants after
legumes, etc.

I plant legumes, interplanted with and followed by greens/brassicas; then root
vegetables; then corn and cucerbits; then solanums; then back to legumes.

This seems to work ok, but I haven't been doing it for long enough to say any
more than this.

Any thoughts?
