Now that's an interesting thought. Now that my tomatoes are in buckets, the beds where they used to be are now occupied by other stuff. You know how nature abhors a vacuum... garden mission creep!
I wonder how planting cucumbers, peppers, okra, etc through rye would work. Too late for this year as I've tilled it all up but maybe next year. I'm thinking though that roots like carrots and turnips might not like the competition.
