Weeds or Not?

I went out into the garden yesterday and it was wall to wall cantalope and tomato seedlings. Not that I planted these seeds on purpose, they are from our house generated compost. It wasn't a surprise to see the tiny plants. It's happened every spring since we started composting. But unlike previous years, when I let the plants grow to see what our garbage garden would produce, I hoed them under. Well not all of them, but most. I want to give our beans and corn a fighting chance at the water and fertilizer.
