What's your veggie obsession?

[RedThorn]

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?

[zazen999]

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.

Well believe it or not but potatoes are my obsession.
27 varieties in my garden this year.

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

[RedThorn]

Flipping onions? lol at least it's just your neighbors... my OH thinks I'm insane.... but then she is married to me, so suppose she can judge best

[zazen999]

I just get the rolled eyes from my OH....

[SarzWix]

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

Beans
Carrots
Tomatoes
Chillis
Peppers
Oh yeah, and potatoes!

[Two_Sheds]

French Beans.
I'll go have a count...

[zazen999]

Just counted - 35 different types of beans

and

25 different types of toms.

[Two_Sheds]

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

Zaz, we should confer

[Seahorse]

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...

[zazen999]

I'll get a list together and PM/Faceache you Two_Sheds....alot of these were PW's so I can send some over if you want...

[kethry]

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!
