Yesterday, the neighbors took out one of the trres that was overshadowing and dropping leaves all over my veggies! Sure, they were just clearing a volunteer that was growing too close to their shed, but it was a boon to my maters.

Speaking of tomatoes, the plants are happily putting out fruit now that the brocolli is gone. My reading since this

Your lettuce bolted; seeds are good.

Huh. I didn't know broccoli and tomatoes were anti companions. That might explain why the one planted near where the cabbage was this year didn't work.

Thanks!

The book I read about it says they're anti companions.

Your website says they're friendly, but not to plant cabbage or cauliflower with tomatoes. That doesn't make sense to me, since cauliflower and broccoli are near identical plants and cabbage is in the same family.

Hurray for your tomatoes! Here's hoping for lots of excellent fruit now that the broccoli is vanquished.
