Evening all,
I was reading a book on companion planting (Josie jeffery, Good companions) where you can match up various plants to see if they are good companions.
I though about Tomatoes and Runner beans and I know that they can be planted after each other but I wondered the following: can I plant them both together and will the runner beans supply the tomatoes with nitrogen as they are growing (as opposed to waiting for them to die and rot in the ground then planting the tomatoes there in the following year)?
The reason I ask this is I read somewhere a while back that these crops should not be planted together :S
Many thanks for your help,
Samuel
