Title: Showing tips to prepare veg..
Post by: gavinjconway on November 12, 2013, 22:01:40

I'm looking for a basic chart to add to our website on how to prepare show veg for our allotment annual show - anyone got one I could use or copy?

I'm not sure what you mean Gavin?

Do you mean a show schedule?

for example like this;

http://www.thegardenersalmanac.co.uk/Data/Show%20schedule/Show%20Schedule.htm (http://www.thegardenersalmanac.co.uk/Data/Show%20schedule/Show%20Schedule.htm)

Or do you mean how to time produce  so that it will be ready for show day?

If you mean the latter, I don't think there is a simple answer to that other than experience!
 
Then if you mean ; what is the judge looking for when judging, check with the RHS they have a book on the subject.

My copy is rather old so I am not sure if all that is in it applies to this day, although I would have thought it still does!
