Aubergine!!!
Its my third year of trying. This year I managed to grow just one aubergine which was about the size of an egg :-X
Its not worth it :'(

Tomatoes...... :o...only joking.. :-X ;D...like I could not grow any.. ::)
Its celery...can't stand it..and just about anything else will do. I didn't grow this year any parsnips..but I might grow some next year again...I just never eat them all and you cannot just grow odd few..well its difficult..

for some reason my beetroot were rubbish this year - I am usually knee-deep in them!

Grew turnips this year for the first time. Will not be growing them ever again. The swede wasn't too good either so they could well be a no no

Courgettes, why bother when I always get offered more than I could ever possibly want!

I didn't grow any swedes this year and won't next year either. I had a bumper crop last year and am still eating them.

No more celariac - I just dont have the knack.

Aubergines - I never get a good crop [except for the first year!] and they take up too much space in the greenhouse.

Carrots.

leeks :'( I love them and use loads but the damm leek moth has won. It even got through enviromesh without holes and the edges buried.

Oh that's sad :( :( :( at moment we do not get that- I hope it stays that way

Probably Aubergines but I'm a stubborn so and so and may give it one more year.

Peppers are another one I may give a miss.

Caulifowers- I did succeed for the first time this year, but only on a very small scale.

Not a veg, a fruit: melon! However stupidly I keep trying and trying ....

and next year I will have probably forgotten my decision not to grow the things again

Sad or what ;D

manicscousers · « **Reply #19 on:** October 02, 2011, 20:19:36 »
