What are some of the simplest, low maintenance vegetables to grow? Veggies that are almost maintenance free except for occasional watering.

With square foot gardening, that’s the way I grow all by veggies. Plant them close together, and weeds don’t gain a foot hold. The space is so small and soil is so loose that any weed daring to start can be easily pulled by hand.
Mostly after planting, I just water them when they need it, and add a little liquid fertilizer to the water once they are blooming and fruiting. Easy peazy, even for a lazy daisy like me.LOL.
My got to haves are green beans, tomatoes, lettuce, spinach, green onions and cukes. Throw in a little early corn a few carrots, and winter wheat or rye. That’s about it. Maybe throw a little red clover in the winter wheat if there is a nice warm February day to help improve the nitrogen in soil and plow it under in the spring.
