My garden's health changed when I finally tried companion planting

I thought it was just a myth, but pairing tomatoes with basil really cut down on bugs. What other plant pairs have worked well for you?

Yeah I was totally in the same boat, thought it was just gardening folklore. Planting marigolds around my vegetable beds made a huge difference though, way fewer nematodes and beetles. It's one of those things you have to see for yourself to believe. Now I look at my garden as a whole team instead of just separate plants.

Wait, marigolds actually work on nematodes too? Always heard they were just for beetles. Might have to try that next season.
