When you say "avoid growing with...." does that apply to 1.planting with or alongside, 2. planting in close proximity, or 3. can be separated by growing in individual pots?

I have been told that parsley will steal nutrients away from other plants. In my experience this seems to happen with coriander.

It means do not plant in the same garden bed if possible.
