Sow between onion rows

-

Sow a crop in the space between your onion rows. Onions will be harvested in a few weeks and they create very little soil disturbanc­e when pulled from the ground, making them ideal for intercropp­ing like this.

Either grow small upright plants like little gem lettuce, which are cut rather than pulled, or sow sweetcorn or beetroot direct, which will only start to get big once the onions have gone.
