Last year when i was planting for the pumpkin patch I gave my then 3 year old a handful of seeds to plant wherever and it turns out he put a few in the hugel beds. I didn't even know until the leaves started sprouting and I was really amazed how well they did. Though I wouldn't recommend putting such a heavy feeder in, I'm mainly trying to show how awesome the beds are. We had a lot of luck with onions, sweet potatoes, and legumes. Some wheat also randomly came up and did well. We also had a cottonwood sprout from it and that guy has done amazing.
