A thread dedicated to those things that are again not obvious to new gardeners.

Post in here those plants that should not be put near to each other, or planted in the soil used by the other etc.

First off, potatoes and tomatoes. Can't share soil. But why? :o

I hear they're both from the nightshade family and diseases from one can harbor in the soil over the winter and infect next year's plants. Something like that, anway. :boots:
