Hi all, new to permaculture and I have a question. I see traditionally you're supposed rotate crops every year between the various families, brassica, legumes, nightshades and root crops but I'm confused as to how I could implement that with polyculture.
I have a few beds planned that will look like this:
Bed 1: Tomato, basil, garlic
Bed 2: Corn, beans, pumpkin
Bed 3: Potato, chives, thyme
Bed 4: Onion, Swiss chard, lettuce
If I have more than one crop family in the bed, what is the crop rotation supposed to look like? I am thinking I should just go legumes (probably clover) by default after the heavy feeders since I don't want to deplete my soil of nitrogen. How do y'all crop rotate with polycultures?
