need help in identifying plants...

[ILoveMyBabyBird]

So i am unsure of whether some things in my garden are weeds or veggie plants, are there any good online resources on identifying plant leaves, etc? I am new at this gardening thing and combined with ds helping me put seeds in the ground i am unsure of what some things are. I can recognize the squash, tomato and kidney beans, but not sure what parsley, potato, cilantro or cucumber looks like. i have four plants growing that i know are not weeds, (i thought they were cucumber, but the leaves don't look like those i've seen on line, so i am thinking they are some type of bean...maybe pinto...but I was marking the spots with sticks and ds pulled some out, ahh,,,some day i'll be good at this i swear, lol...

Also, off topic, but i left old tomato plants to die in the garden from last year and now it seems like there are tomato plants everywhere, places i didn't plant them, is it possible that seeds from last years plants have begun growing?

Can you upload pictures of the unknown plants somewhere and link us? Yeah volunteers from last year's tomatoes are very possible.

plant 1 is the only thing that looks like a "plant" and not a weed to me, i would guess squash.

Plant one looks like either squash or cucumbers and four looks like it could be a watermelon if it's the same kind of viney, hairy, climbing thing that plant one is. They all are quite similar.

Second link looks like chickweed at a glance, but a close-up of the flowers would help.

The last link, I can't quite tell what's in there with the crabgrass. It's probably a flower of some sort, especially if you broadcast any flower mixes.

The first one might be a cuke, yeah. Are the stems at all spiny?

Plant 4 looks like something in the mallow family (Malvaceae), so not a food crop, but some sort of wildflower.

One could be squash, but we had something similar and it turned out to be weed.

The second looks like chickweed, which is and edible weed - use it in salad.

And fourth looks like a flower.

In link 2 it looks like two plants?

The one on the left looks like it might be cilantro and on the right I can't really tell.
