Answers:
Plant what you like to eat, and what you have space for and time to take care of. I have 7 types of heirloom tomatoes (love eating fresh and for salsa), 5 types of peppers ( for salsa), cucumbers, snow peas, green beans, okra (yummy fried), green onions, beets (I love borst, and the greens are incredible), swiss chard, spinach, lettuce (if you grow only one thing, grow lettuce-it is so much tastier than store bought, and no worries about E coli), carrots, radishes, chives, parsley, cilantro, mint, chamomile, dill, thyme, milk thistle, horehound (dabbling into medicinal herbs). Also, I will plant the following fall crops: collard greens (will overwinter if you have a mild winter and you mulch), daikon radishes, kale, turnips, parsnips. I do not grow corn or squashes due to space requirements.
lettuce, peppers, squash, cucumbers, onions, carrots, tomatoes, green beans, corn...
it depends on how much space is available and how much work that needs to be put into it to maintain it
This year we have planted 70 tomato plants, down from 140 from last year, never say yes to a greenhouse owner at the end of the season until you find out what the question is!! 8 different peppers, 2 types of zucchini, 4 different squash, 2 types of watermelon, 130 hills- 3 different types- potatoes, several different types of lettuce, 3 types of carrots, sweet corn and ornamental corn, big and little pumpkins, 2 types of eggplant, sweet peas, green/yellow and wax beans,kohlrabi. This is spread out in 2 different gardens, one in town and one in the headlands of about 1000 acres of crop land. Between the 2 of them we figure there is close to an acre and a half of garden space and we are thinking about expanding for some unknown reason!!!!
