Hello. Can anyone here help me better understand the science around dill and companion planting?
I understand, from various articles, that growing dill near carrots and eggplant can produce bad results, but I don't fully understand why.
I'd like to grow some dill in a container in my garden, away from the eggplant and carrots, and not in the ground with them. But how far away is enough?
Is it a pollination problem, in which case the container wouldn't help much?
Is it a root/chemical problem, in which case the containers would help?
Any help appreciated. Thank you.
