For what it's worth: I, too, planted a row of tomatoes essentially under a black walnut, as stupid as it sounds. The tree was a beautiful black walnut and it was east of the main garden. In the first two east rows, I planted tomatoes. Didn't even realize what I did until a visitor said 'Funny, I didn't know tomatoes could grow this close to a black walnut."
The following year, I planted winter squash in those rows. The vines did great and in September we harvested a bumper crop of GROUND HOGS!!! (one actually had a burrow right below the trunk of the tree.)
