Last year i took a pack of seeds and got them started not thinking so many would make it. Ended up with 60+ plants. I took out all the tomatoes I could but some rotted or were funky and not worth harvesting so I let them lay.
Fast forward to this year. Those tomato plants are sprouting up EVERYWHERE. I'd guess I have a few hundred. I started pulling some out and transplanting to a holding area but wondering what the right approach is.
Should I let them come back (which may cause problems around carrots, onions...) or should I yank them? I'm afraid if I don't do something, by next year the whole place will be overgrown with tomatoes and I'll have to start a new garden for everything else.
Thoughts?
