My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

cucumbers and basil

19 years ago

Do cucumber and basil not like one another? I'm planning on putting tomatos, cucumbers, peppers and basil in the same area and somewhere/someone suggested that basil can inhibit the growth of cucumber. Is this correct? Thanks for the insight... Also is it not a good idea to combine tomato and cucumbers? Somewhere else I read that cucs like lots of moisture and tomatoes could get blossom end rot from too much moisture. HELP please - I have to quit reading stuff... it makes me ask too many questions
