I have previously managed to grow, harvest and eat only a couple of pumpkins, peas, chillies, beans, courgettes, tomatoes, spring onions, kale, potatoes, and herbs. I’ve grown a few others without getting them to crop. I’m laughing to myself because now, with a nearly 1-year-old and a full-sized, partially cleared allotment, I’m sure my yields will be spectacular… I do so love the magic of sprouting seeds, though.

And then there’s the herbs and flowers and other veggies not in the list. In fact pretty much everything except salsify, scorzonera, radish and celery, none of which I’m keen on. Yes I grow too much but my friends love it.

[Small pumpkin]

Even with my very limited growing season ahead I’ll be growing 17 different veg. If I have the will power it’ll be staying at that. But knowing me it’ll probably go up

2 varieties of Basil
1 variety of Runner bean
1 variety of Pea
2 varieties of asparagus
1 Variety of spinach
1 variety of Kale
1 variety of Cabbage
1 variety of Broccoli
1 variety of Brussel sprout
1 variety of Courgette
1 variety of Pumpkin
1 squash scallop mix
2 varieties of tomato
17 varieties of chilli ( this will definitely be going up)
1 variety of Sweet pepper
1 variety of Cucumber
Mix varieties of Lettuce

I don’t think I’ve doubled up on anything.

I was right, my list is going up! It’s 18 now.
Edible flowers have now been added.
Basil has changed to herbs in general, so that’s more than I was planning.
lettuce & salad has gone up. Again not planed.
Chillies have gone up. That was to be expected
