So, for those gardeners out there, what are your favorite and least favorite things to grow. The only rule is it must be used primarily for food. Sorry, perrenial gardens are pretty but I'm interested in trying to grow something new this year.

To start it off, my favorites:
1) Potatos
2) Zuchini
3) Habanero Peppers.

And the stuff I grow but wouldn't if I could purchase the same quality:
1) Tomatos (season is generally too short, especially light at the end, as vine ripening is a must!)
2) Radishes (plant in may, harvest in mid june, can't replant as there is just too much sun and heat which turns them into mostly tops).
3) Cilantro (I get more corriander than Cilantro, and it doesn't grow well outside after early June)

Later!

Awesome stuff! Have you tried the Thai Sweet Basil? It's very tasty... one of the best I've had.

I remember my grandma growing strawberries. How difficult are they to deal with? She lived in northern MN (about 30 minutes south of Canada) and never said much about them... she just kept growing them. I'd love to have some to make fruity alcoholic beverages. Perhaps a strawberry dandilion wine would be tasty.

What types of peppers do you grow? I've done various bell peppers, habaneros (of course), pimentos, banana's, cherry, jalapeno, hot thai, and others I can't remember. I still haven't found a hot pepper that compares to a habanero flavor-wise. They're great in dill pickles or in a stir fry with zuchini or asparagus.

I just planted the strawberries so I wouldnt be able to tell you, but I have grown them outdoors many times and I think they are easy.
As far as the basil goes, I am growing sweet thai, lemon and chocolate basil.
