Tomatoes and peppers planted together?

Question

Is it ok to plant tomatoes and peppers side by side? I know your not supossed to plant them in the same spot following season, so made me wonder if ok to have side by side?

Answer 1

It is okay but be sure to give the tomatoes lots of room.

Answer 2

I do it year after year, Just watch planting around Maple trees. the tomatoes and peppers and cukes can cause the tree to get some disease that starts with a V, we call it vermicelli disease, but the real name is different, it is the little brown spots on the leaves and then the tree dies. Put a little Epsom Salts around each plant 1 table spoon, It will make the stalks bigger and the peppers hotter,

Answer 3

tomatoes need much more watering than peppers, remember that!

Answer 4

I have tomatoes and peppers planted side by side in rows and they are doing fine.  While I use the same bed, I alternate from one season to the next the area plants are planted.  Next year, I will plant cabbage and squash where the tomatoes and peppers are now.
