Got any tomatillos? ours have wild seeded all over the place. Ranging from small seedlings peeking out their heads at the front to a fuckin' 2 foot bush out the back already punching out calyxes

The main things self seeding here are bindii and mallow.

I've never actually grown or even used tomatillos. In my last place I did have wild seeded cherry tomatoes, plus a few things like parsnips, parsley, lettuce and bok choy. By the time I have enough plants built up to do that here I'll probably be moving again, hopefully to my own place where I can keep the garden long term and get the benefit from that sort of thing.
