I pull up because I am replacing immediately with a cool weather crop for winter. I bury the plant deep into the compost pile under leavesm,manure and weeds.
I also like to pull them up to check for root knot nematodes since I’m new to the south and I have fairly sandy soil. I know it’s a big problem in our area.
