Allan mentioned the companion planting of Pumpkins and corn. This is
actually from a Native American system known as the "Three sisters" which
are corn, pumpkins or squash and beans. These are planted together for
most efficient use of garden space,ie the corn uses the 'top story', beans
grow up the corn for support, and the squash (a notorious space hog)
sprawls all over the ground. The system is not meant for disease control or
pest avoidance.
