NAME JUST ONE VEG YOU HAVE DECIDED NOT TO GROW NEXT YEAR AND WHY!

[Crystalmoon]

ROFL ;D at weeds....in my dreams x jane

Pak Choi. Grew beautifully then turned my back and they had flowered. Perhaps didn't realise how quickly they would be ready and wasn't prepared with a recipe. Hope they are composting well...

Was also tempted to say spinach as we don't really like it except in a curry. However, the chickens really love it so perhaps one plant next year.

Oh - and parsley. Took over half a raised bed and we had more in a herb garden. Had parsely growing out of our ears - you live and learn...

Sweetcorn its not always warm enough here in the north east to get a decent crop.

[GrannieAnnie]

All the kohl crops- too many cabbage whites to deal with. Every year I've tried one or another crop with same results. Too bad because the huge cabbage leaves look so great in a garden I'd grow them just for looks ;D

But with old age I'm getting more content just growing what wants to grow here.

Also will be growing less quantity of vegies and putting in more pretty flowers and  EX-PAN-DING FIG TREE collection.

[daveyboi]

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.

Exactly the same for me and will most likely try one more time.

Mind it does seem one year's poor cropping of something moves around to something else the next year.

All brassicas except cauliflowers.  Not keen on using chemicals and the white fly are unbearable.

My caulis are too large and tasty to give up though!

[gazza1960]

deff no more nasturtiums as they took over our bean racks and throttled the growth of the beans up the
canes.....live and learn.

Have to add another one - brussel sprouts will be going as well as aubergines.  Some people on our site can grow them and others can't  - and I am one of those!

And I am getting fed up of inhaling whitefly every time I walk past!

[tomatoada]

Witkiem broad beans.  They were tough and tasteless.   Masterpiece Green Longpod and others were Ok.

Grow variagated ones they are weaker, pull the rabblers and only allow compact plants to set seed.

Maincrop potatoes, bl++dy slugs.

Radishes!

Two radishes are more than enough for a year! I certainly can't eat a row.

I'll do courgettes again though - even if they are a bit of a nightmare to deal with! Mine are still cropping (albeit slowing down now) after more than four months!

[ajb]

Sweetcorn, sadly, it's too hit and miss and I just don't have the space to waste!

[Mike J]

Patty Pan squashes - rather tasteless and a rubbery texture, or maybe I'm just not cooking them properly.

They are lovely picked very young, steamed and eaten with melted butter, salt & pepper

and the rats got ours last year!

[Mike J]

Ah, thanks, first time I've grown them, didn't know when to harvest. Maybe try again next year!

[Gadget]

I am going to grow same veg but different varieties and colours next year  :) but one thing for sure is that I am going to only have 3 courgette plants ::) and No butternut squash complete failure... :'(

Wish I had your problem. I'm only getting one or two plants from seed for some reason and we plus the swallowtail butterflies really do like it so much. Next year I'm going to try planting a whole row as an edging in the flower bed. Maybe we'll get 4 plants that way ::)

[artichoke]

Have you tried germinating them on damp paper before sowing? I've always had good parsley since doing that - I put the seeds that develop roots into a pot of compost, and plant them out later. Before that I seldom had good parsley, and I do like it.

[Gadget]

My dad always sows the seeds and pours boiling water over them, and has done for years and hasn't failed him yet. I tried it this year and it worked a treat I have masses of parsely. :)
