These Quick-Growing Plants Help Keep Weeds At Bay & Keep Your Garden Producing All Summer

As you harvest your vegetables throughout the summer, gaps will inevitably appear in your garden. However, leaving the soil bare encourages weed growth and can make it more prone to erosion, plus it means your garden isn’t being as productive as it could be.

Instead of leaving gaps in your garden, try planting these short-season vegetables in succession throughout the summer to fill in any open spots made from harvesting other vegetables, and keep your garden full of a variety of tasty veggies all summer long!
