Besides other herbs, what other vegetables will basil happily (or at least not unhappily) co-exist with? What should it never be planted with? I have a farm, farm plus and a farm xl. Thanks in advance!

Thanks! I do use companion planting in my garden but I was also wondering about root size and nutritional needs and how that might impact what it is planted with in the Aerogarden.

I do not agree with some of their do not plant with ideas. I have successfully planted Rosemary and Basil together. Also while I have planted basil with peppers and tomatoes, I have found that the warmer water wilts basil leaves and also you have to watch the nutes.
Just a reminder that hydroponics can and sometimes do grow differently then soil. But I do agree with others

Thanks for the correction, Shawn.
I did not know from experience, so turned to Google for answers. Experience definitely trumps Google!

Trust me I have had my fair share of fails with AG'ing. Also having a black thumb outside does not give me anything to compare to except for what I have been taught/told from others. As for growing in the AG, I know what works for me.
