A thought occurred to me as I was running through and voting for each category. I seemed to see a trend to my voting and the same names were in the frame in many votes.

How about an overall winner, second and third for the whole show for those people who have entered 5 or more classes. Or what ever number of classes we think is right….

This could be decided upon by the number of individual wins, 5 points for a first, 3 for a second, 2 for a third and 1 point for a fourth, or a simple vote at the end of the main voting?

The small size of some of the classes might make the points method a bit flakey though.

Just an idea.

I was thinking of adding up the vote count! This would exclude those that were the only entrant in a competition. I would then like to suggest a vote count of 10 for those single competition entrants (and that includes the confession of a nettle grower!)

Nettles can be used to make a soup! Not tried this yet!

Good on you doc steve for growing the nettles, they play a very important part in the garden for the wild life. I am afraid I am one of those people who dig them out though.

On the subject of voting, I am surprised at the low numbers of votes - I think the highest I have seen is 18 in any one category. Maybe those who have not entered think they are not entitled to vote ???

I agree with you Pat, especially when you check out how many 'views' each catagorie has compared with how many viewers have bothered to vote.

righty ho. Have done a quick add up (if maths and brain were working correctly) - using 10 points for the winners in single entrant competitions, and the number of votes in the polls (except finals)....

As a lottie novice I have really enjoyed looking at all the different types of veg and would like to thank everyone for sharing their veg with me. I have made quite a few notes of what I want to grow next year from looking at this comp - you never know I might enter more than just tumbin toms next year!

Blush Blush! Thank you all for the kind congrats. I would like to take this opportunity to thank my mother, for giving birth to me and bringing me up with a healthy respect for mother nature.....to Ava for finding my allotment and giving me the time, support, and most importantly his cheque book....I would like to thank that horse, you know who you are, I couldn't have grown those prize winning corns without you.... I would like to thank you lot, for all of the advise, help, and spirit lifting jokes and banter and finally, a HUGE thanks to Multiveg for all of her hard work, I think the biggest round of applause goes to her!

I am very, very proud of you EJ.... ;D ;D ;D

I couldn't find any proud gifs......so have a happy one......

I can only imagine all the work that has gone into putting this competition on, both in terms of the organisation ( :-* Multiveg) and all the participants who planted, tended, picked, photographed and posted pictures of their fantastic achievements.

Well done everyone.......!!! ;D ;D ;D
