My 2015 Grow List
My list will change at least 10 times before I can start my first seeds (half march) but for now these are the ones that I think will make it to the seed trays. I still have some empty spots (I will grow about 70 varieties) that will be filled. Suggestions and ideas are very welcome. As you can see I want to grow a lot of "classics", but I also love the dwarfs and some rather new varieties. I'm a big fan of sweet.

Lovely list, Daps! Personally, I would add more blacks to the list - Carbon is one of my favourites, but like Vorlon also.

Hello, Daps! I love the sweets, too, but with a bit of zip- and my favorites tend to be pink or black. Elgin Pink, Barlow Japanese, Blackberry, Daniel Burson, Negrillo de Almoguera and Terhune have been some of the best for me. Also like Top Sirloin and Moya for reds so far.

I listened. Got rid of two pinks, added a black.

Daphne, I have a black/brown dwarf for you to trial if you are interested. Your climate is pretty similar to mine and I would be really interested to see how this compares to the many dwarf project varieties you are growing for earliness and other traits related to a Northern European climate.

No problem. I can always make room for an extra dwarf.
