Default Tomatos and Cabbages?

The only reason I could think not to (not that I know much) is that
cabbages like lots of nitrogen, whereas if you give tomatoes too much
nitrogen they don't produce many fruit (putting all their effort into
growing leaves instead). There is also something at the back of my
mind about cabbages liking soil to have more limestone than tomatoes
like ....
