What is your Criteria for Growing What you Do??

[kimpossible]

I always find picking what I will grow each year very complicated. I mull over my choices for weeks. I have a bunch of criteria, and several " categories ".

This year, being part of the Dwarf Project, I am making room for about 9 varieties, 5 plants-each minimum.

I also want to grow a rainbow of cherries - I have about 20 varieties there.

I want to grow unique shapes and colours - extremely ribbed, beautifully speckled or striped.

I want to grow "odd", unique colours.

I want to grow varieties from my seed collection that are dwindling or older, and need to be grown out for new seed stock.

I want to grow varieties that SSE do not have many listings for, or varieties that are virtually "seedless", and therefore, seed is in short supply.

I want to grow the varieties from Carolyn's book.

I want to grow the varieties from the "Top 10 Lists", etc. at Tomatoville.

I want to grow the "Early" varieties - so I can get tomatoes before August!

It all gets to be a complicated puzzle. My husband just does not get the time I spend on this!

What is your logic and criteria for picking your list?
