This is my first garden. I grew tomatoes, pumpkins, zucchini, squash, and eggplant. I want to replant everything in a different spot of the garden and add things to my garden.

most of those vegetables will reseed themselves in a warm climate zone, but it isn't advisable. and if you cleaned up the garden, leaving no old fruit (which you SHOULD do) then there is nothing doing the reseeding.

the reason not to plan on having volunteers (plants growing from last years fallen seeds), or saving many seeds yourself, is that any hybrid variety, which is most of those sold commercially, won't reproduce themselves. you will get a different quality of plant. if you want to save seeds, look for non-hybrid species, often called heirloom varieties. but you can't grow a heirloom tomato (for instance) near hybrid tomatoes, or even OTHER heirlooms and use those seeds, since they will be uncontrolled hybrids.

planting your vegetables in different spots each year is an excellent gardening practice. it prevents soil born organisms unique to one sort of vegetable from infecting next year's crop. it also changes the use of nutrients so you aren't leaching one location of any specific nutrient.

have fun with your gardening... it's mentally and physically healthy along with being the best eating of all.

if you have any questions, you can call the master gardeners at your county's extension office. they give advice for free, often can send you pamphlets or other literature, and sometimes will even pay a visit personally to see what your difficulties are.

you will have to replant everything next year...it is best to rotate the crops every year..this keeps the soil from getting "tired"--lack of nutrients which makes for better veggies....if you grow peas and beans then the next year plant corn in those spots....every year continue to rotate your veggies and you should have no problems...also rotating your plants will help prevent disease and can also help somewhat with insect control of the pesky ones who love to munch on veggie plants

also get some 10-10-10 fertilizer and sprinkle it lightly around the plants starting about 1-2 weeks after the seeds germinate..do this about every 4-6 weeks unless you use compost...if you use compost you wont need fertilizer

i found out compost works best for tomato plants...plants i had in garden did not do good this year but the volunteer plants in the compost pile put out all kinds of tomatoes

If you are in Southern California, Southern Texas, Southern Florida....,Yes....Any where else, probably not! Most of the vegetables we grow, peppers, tomatoes, eggplants and the like are annuals in the United States.
On occasions, tomatoes will reseed themselves, and so will squash type plants. But not much else!!!
So you can rotate your crop and replant in confidence that there will not be much or any regrowth of this years vegetables!

No your vegetables will not come back next year. They are a one shot deal. If you collected the seeds from each and planted those in spring, maybe. It is a good idea to rotate your vegetables each year, it confuses the bugs plus the same plants are not taking all of the nutrients from the soil.

No? there are some but not many. Aspargus comes up year after year, in fact it's the only way to grow it. So go ahead and till it ready for next year, and don't forget put all your leaves into your garden and till them in, as many as you can, by spring you won't find any leaves, but you will have added compost to your garden.

Tulips and some roses. If you go your local flower shop, I like Lowes there seem to have good deals and good plants. Look for the bags of buds that you plant in the fall or winter and those are types that usually come and go every year.

Veggies are not perennials. They need to be replanted each yr.
