  • Grow 20 Different Veg from seed in 2020

    Can you grow 20 types of veggies from seed this year?
    Show us your list

    20 different tomatoes counts as 1 (Sorry Scarlet)
    20 different chillies counts as 1 (sorry SP)
    Spring cabbage, summer cabbage and winter cabbage counts as 1.

    You get the idea

    Maybe show us some photos of your crop later in the year, just to prove that you've done it.

    There's another thread on the Flowers Board for 20 Flowers from seed. https://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/gr...-a_100656.html

          I'm counting them as 1 but it depends on how desperate you are to make 20

              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.

                  3 broccoli/calabrese/brokali
                  4 cabbage (spring)
                  5 carrots
                  6 cauliflower/romanesco
                  7 courgette
                  8 cucumber
                  9 florence fennel

                        I'll have to check my seed stock, I didn't think I would come close, but I might if I can count fruit and edible flowers and 'erbs.
