Annie (or anyone else that does this),

I also have a few veggies that I think would be easier to allow to sprawl, 
but wanted to know if you just let them go, with weeds coming up all about, 
or do you use groundcover or some other slick way to let them have their 
space without having to tiptoe through through the vines to weed?  For those 
that follow Mel's method, do you spend much time trimming and training each 
plant?  And does having the veggies growing off of the ground significantly 
improve the looks and health of them at harvest time??

 Thanks,
     Sandi                  startin' to sweat again in N. Texas!!   zone 7/8
