I don’t plow or till so random vegetables pop up and are welcomed into the garden. I actually encourage them. Radishes are allowed to go to seed - never have to plant them because they are everywhere crowding out the weeds, both spring and fall. Lettuce pops up and are transplanted into rows. Potatoes go wild. Cabbages are planted in the open spaces. Volunteers tend to produce earlier since they are already in the ground and bugs don’t seem to find them as readily. Just ate the first squash of the year off a survivor vine. My gardens are quite a bit larger too.
