I have personally been victimized by YouTube videos entitled “how to plant trees for MAXIMUM yield” and then proceeded to watch some dude dig a hole for ten minutes :/ as always thanks for all your hard work and research!

Hi. I'm glad I found this bit of info. I've just started heirloom gardening this year. Adding a dwarf apple tree next month. The companion planting info has been overwhelming. Too many non-natives and other plants I don't want to squeeze in my small garden. While this article more scientific than I needed, it's hard to find anyone promoting native versions of garden helpers, since I also only have native plants in my yard. But I also recognize that many vegetables are not native to my area (midwest, USA), thus may like those non-native garden helpers. I hate marigolds.
