Wishing you both good luck....
And I'd say that's excellent advice given there for you Novice Gardener.

My own advice NG, would be to be aware of what vegetables are going to need physically 'digging' for harvesting, like potatoes and jerusalem artichokes, and whether that will disturb the crop planted next to it.

Do be aware also, that with jerusalem artichokes, you will need to remove every single tuber (and same with potatoes actually) at the end of harvesting, or you will get stray/rogue ones invading that space the following year when you don't want them, which can be an absolute nightmare....
