 8- garlic going in where the beans came out, the soil is sweet for it now
 9- lettuce sown between the slow brassicas, gone before the cabbages fill in
10- crimson clover and rye in the empty beds, a green blanket that pays the soil back through winter
11- spring bulbs near the garlic, they wake at the same hour and ask for the same things
12- spinach beside the strawberry crowns, the cold they share keeps them both honest
13- a row of carrots beside the late onions, each one still hides the other from its own fly
14- chamomile and dill let to self-sow, they will come up early next year and bring the right insects with them

18- never set garlic where the peas just left, what one called sweet the other calls bitter
19- onions and the new bean cover crop, keep them on opposite ends of the bed
20- a brassica patch is a brassica patch, do not plant another one in its footprint, the worms are still there
21- lettuce too close to the late broccoli, the broccoli will shadow it out before either is ready
22- fall potatoes where the tomatoes stood, the blight will follow them under the soil
