I'm working on a 2nd tier of organisation - for each day of the week - but I'll spare you that until its become more than a completely scatty idea whirling around in an empty space above my neck
Funny you should ask that, ham, as I'm struggling with a turnipy thing that produces edible shoots called "broccoletti". I can't decide whether its a root or a leaf thing.
I only have a couple of days to make up my mind (if its a root) but if its a leaf I have a few weeks. Of course, if its a shoot................
At least, its not a fruit
Hi VC,
I am intrigued by your planning method and need to point out a significant problem with your approach.
If you work on true botanical classification you have missed out a planning week for the STEMS ie potatoes, celery, rhubarb, kohl rabi, chard, asparagus etc.
You must remember that onions are really a leaf in botanical terms as are leeks.
Calabrese, cauliflower, marrows and squashes, cucumbers are flowers and vegetable fruits and you haven't a week for these.
Finally, what about the seeds - sweet corn, mushrooms, beans and peas?
Other than these issues I think the system has merit!!!!

^^^ There's always one who comes along to confuse me
Would it work if I related it to the parts that are eaten-ish?
Potatoes and kohlrabi are roots;
Rhubarb, asparagus, celery, spinach, chard, onions & leeks are shoots (stems)
Sweetcorn, peas, beans, squashes are "fruits"
Cabbages caulis broccoli are "leaves". I know cauli is a flower but in my head its a green, which is a leaf.
This photo doesn't really show the extent of the problem. You can see where the hole is and everything to the left has to be taken out. The pole carries electrical and telephone wires
