[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 285524, member: 1991"] You're right about tomatoes and about companion planting. I've got a garden bed full of tomato plants growing in the wrong season. We've had a lot of rain (advantage of living on the coastal strip) so all the plants are lush. Trouble is, they won't flower at this time. And I know as soon as the weather warms up, there will be too many plants in that bed to survive and to produce anything. Unless I'm lucky. BUT - if I can sow some basil in there to companion-plant, I might have a chance. We're temperate enough so if I can sow basil in late winter, I'll have a spring crop of bail and maybe a tomato or two. I just have to get the plants through winter. Lucky we're frost-free here! But we DO get icy cold winds off the south pole, so the plants hopefully are sufficiently sheltered behind a high fence. Marg [/QUOTE]
