    What's your veggie obsession?

    Obviously mine's tomatoes in particular.. with 19 varieties growing....Seahorse has 21 varieties of beans growing. So what's everyone else's particular weak spot when it comes to seeds?

    Flipping onions. My next door lottie neighbour thinks I am barking...i sowed at least another 800 this week. About 20 different varieties, if not more. And that's after 1/3 of my plot is already full of them, and 1/5 of my home garden beds. Scarey.

    But, coming up close is the bean varieties.....haven't counted but between Two_Sheds and Piglet Willie and the HSL...I seem to have a shed load this year.

    Here's some onions I made last year....harvested 30 minutes ago.

        As I've only been growing veg for a month "Everything" would have to be my answer. In a couple of years time I might be able to narrow it down a bit

              Sorry, but I can't narrow it down to one thing

              Beans
              Carrots
              Tomatoes
              Chillis
              Peppers
              Oh yeah, and potatoes!

                    24 different varieties of French Bean. I don't think that's enough.

                    Zaz, we should confer

                      Ah, it's nice to be somewhere you can feel normal, isn't it?

                      As well as my 21 types of bean, I also have 'several' varieties of pea and the chilli mania is coming up fast in the outside lane...
                      I was feeling part of the scenery
                      I walked right out of the machinery
                      My heart going boom boom boom

                          me: tomatoes and basil. (and chilli, although i'm not growing them this year).

                          Tomatoes (11): Costoluto Fiorentino, Gardener's delight, Gartenperle, Golden Sunrise, Minibel, Moneymaker, Red Pear, San Marzano, Sub Arctic Plenty, Tigerella, Tumbling Tom Red

                          Basil (9): Ararat, Cinnamon, Greek, Lemon, Lettuce Leaf, Lime, Purple Delight, Sweet, Thai

                          Chillis (14): Anaheim, Apache, California, Cayenne, Chilli Shake, Jalapeno, Gigantica, Hercules, Meek and Mild, Pequin, Pinocchio's Nose, African Naga, Tabasco, Twilight

                          The bedroom windowsill is chockafull of tomatoes, the bathroom windowsill of basil. I don't have room for the chillis, esp as i'm not doing a greenhouse this year!
