2. yea!!!!
3. Yes. Re-plant every year to be sure you get the most abundantly healthy crop.
4. yes
5. If you want a reasonable amount of control over your garden, like more veggies and less weeds, they definately need to be replanted (and preferably fertilized)
6. yes you will,because if you havent already seen any voluntary plants that came back,then there is probably not gonna be any!the old seeds could have washed away,blew away,got eaten by the birds ect,.!
7. of course, where do you think new plants will come from? one seed will grow one plant, almost all veggies are harvested before they turn to seed for better eating so there are no seeds in the now empty garden!
8. depends on the quality of the soil, but you may want to contact Home Depot or Lowe's who have very qualified individuals in the field.
9. Yes and dont forget to fertlize also :)
10. Well, since you picked the vegetables and ate them, then all the seeds are gone because the vegies had the seeds in them :) Even still, you should turn the soil and add compost and fertilizer to the soil to give it proper nutrients in order to "feed" the new plants. For tomato plants, I would cut most of the bottom leaves off, and leave a coupld on top, then plant the entire plant, almost to the top leaves. This way, the entire stalk or stem of the plant will develope roots all up and down it, so that the plant will grow bigger, (because its getting more nutrients from the soil, via the many roots it produces), it will be stronger and produce more tomatoes. (My wifes uncle grows tomato plants up to 8 feet high this way!! and he lives in Missouri). Make sure you pull the "suckers" off the tomatoe plants (those are the ones that grow between the leaves and stem...tiny shoots that need to be plucked, as it sucks nutrients from the plants and doesnt produce any fruits, just grows to a leaf and thats all. I wish you well... Jesse
11. yep
12. Is this a serious question?
13. yup
14. Yes, vegetable gardens must be replanted. Plow, till or hoe, then plant. Do this in mid May usually, depending on your area.
