10 Plants That Should Never Share Soil With Lettuce, According to Gardening Experts

Cucumbers: Cucumbers and lettuce can compete for nutrients and water, leading to reduced growth and potential disease issues.

Tomatoes: The high nitrogen needs of tomatoes can overshadow lettuce, resulting in poor lettuce growth and increased pest issues.

Brassicas (e.g., Broccoli, Cabbage): These plants can harbor pests and diseases that might also affect lettuce, such as aphids and fungal infections.

Potatoes: Potatoes and lettuce have different soil needs and can attract pests that may negatively impact both crops.

Corn: Corn's tall growth can shade lettuce, reducing the light lettuce needs to thrive and leading to poor leaf development.

Beets: Beets and lettuce have similar root systems and can compete for space and nutrients, potentially stunting lettuce growth.
