How many feet north of the corn would you plant tomatoes (vining tomatoes) in order to keep the corn from shading the tomatoes. I live in East TX, if that helps. Nick Quote \| Reply \| Report

Texas, I would guess a safe distance would be as tall as you expect the corn to grow - 6' maybe? Why not put the corn at the northernmost spot?? Quote \| Reply \| Report
