I have a large cherry tomato plant growing along a fence that has intertwined with a bittersweet nightshade plant. I can differentiate the fruit with certainty but I’m wondering if it might be unsafe to eat the tomatoes that were grown so close to the bittersweet nightshade and if any of those compounds could’ve been exchanged through the roots? Thank you!

    No compounds can be exchanged between plants that would/should give you much cause for concern. They look good too lol

    You’re safe eating those but if you’re worried I wouldn’t recommend planting any seeds next year and harvesting the fruit. That’s when things could get iffy.
