Yeah. They’re basically a weed. And they grow like one pretty much wherever the seeds land. At least out here in Iowa where we have the best soil on the planet. :-)
That's a fact. I grew up in Iowa. I wish I had a semi load of that down here in SC where I have nothing but sand. I can only create micro spots with compost and black cow in buried pots and raised beds. I have reached the point where my tomatoes taste like those raised in that dirt up there however!
Verticillium wiped me out last year.
