For the most part I plant what we'll use. I have my main crops that I plant every year (such as tomatoes, peas and potatoes), and every year I try a few new things to see how they work (this year garlic was one of the new ones). I see how the new crops go to decide whether I'm going to try them again.

My main problem is that I don't have as much room as I'd like, so when I try a variety of different things, I don't get much of each crop. What I'd like to do is narrow it down to crops that are consistently good and useful, such as the potatoes, and grow mainly just those.

I love growing things that I can eat! Make food a hundred times better knowing that you put in the effort.

I love to plant vegetables which i find easy to store for a long time. I think main task is not to grow some vegetable but to preserve it for long time for your use.

I love to grow peas, tomatoes and carrots as it is very easy to freeze them for loong time
