Organic Gardening will upgrade its login and registration system on
December 11. The new system is needed to support some of the major site
enhancements that we are currently developing. The new system is shared with
other Rodale sites, including Prevention, Men's Health, Runner's World and Women's Health.

asked questions related to the new system.
Hey Bill, I can only speak for myself, but I'm way WAY more likely to read something if you post the text - versus posting a link to an outside site with a mysterious URL.

Tables Table 1. Examples of allelopathy from published research. Allelopathic Plant Impact Rows of black walnut interplanted with corn in an alley cropping system Reduced corn yield attributed to production of juglone, an allelopathic compound from black walnut, found 4.25 meters from trees Rows of Leucaena interplanted with crops in an alley cropping system Reduced the yield of wheat and tumeric but increased the yield of maize and rice Lantana, a perennial woody weed pest in Florida citrus Lantana roots and shoots incorporated into soil reduced germination and growth of milkweed vine, another weed Sour orange, a widely used citrus rootstock in the past, now avoided because of susceptibility to citrus tristeza virus Leaf extracts and volatile compounds inhibited seed germination and root growth of pigweed, bermudagrass, and lambsquarters Red maple, swamp chestnut oak, sweet bay, and red cedar Preliminary reports indicate that wood extracts inhibit lettuce seed as much as or more than black walnut extracts Eucalyptus and neem trees A spatial allelopathic relationship if wheat was grown within 5 m Chaste tree or box elder Leachates retarded the growth of pangolagrass, a pasture grass but stimulated the growth of bluestem, another grass species Mango Dried mango leaf powder completely inhibited sprouting of purple nutsedge tubers. Tree of Heaven Ailanthone, isolated from the Tree of Heaven, has been reported to possess non-selecitve post-emergence herbicial activity similar to glyphosate and paraquat Rye and wheat Allelopathic suppression of weeds when used as cover crops or when crop residues are retained as mulch.

I think, I'm supposed to mess this up when I do a copy.

In our back yard we have 2 pecan trees and i have noticed and made the commet to my hubby that the lettuce- or any other plant planted under the area some of the trees roots grow don't,they look wilty,and their growth is stunted so i'm not suprized by this study.We do compaion plant,have for years now and I do belive in it.I always put: bean/nastuituims calendula and beets tomato's and basil,pasley lettuce and onions cabbage-potato's-celery-dill peas-lettuce,kale,chards radishes-lettuce pole beas-corn-squash corn-watermelons or muskmelons tomato's-garlic roses-garlic-parsley fruit trees-petunias-tansey carrots-tomato's-lettuce broccoli-dill-celery-beets amaranth-potato's beans-marigolds kohlrabi-beets geraniums-repel cabbage worms,japanese beetles-use white variety near corn potato's and horseradish-horse radish gets invasive beware to put in area you want it. We do a border of herbs around the garden and inbetween rows to draw bee's and repel insects. When we have not used many of these combinations we do notice a differnce in flavor,growth and insects we also use green manure crops in between seasons.Alfafa,rec clover,winter rye,wheat.... We plant a solid area of Marigolds and till into the soil for mole crickets,bad nematoads,and such because the marigolds do not work on these above, have to mature and then be tilled into the soil,then they go to work on bad insects. Marigolds work by producing a chemical in roots which is released into the soil and kills the bad nematodes and mole crickets.For this to work tho,you have to till them in and the next years crop is then protected from 1 to 3 years so we rotate doing this to protect the whole garden.
