BumbleB, I think the voting will stay open until the end of October, so plenty of time.

I've been taking pics of beans, for longest bean, and a set of beans, but got so many more to come I'm hanging onto the pics for now in case I get better ones

Great, I cant wait to see all the entries.

Lol, I could enter a few curley beans!

[SarzWix]

I usually have curly beans, but the Cobra climbing beans I'm growing this year are coming long, straight and in bagfuls!

Now the family have gone home; I'm going to have more time to start taking photos - YAY!!!

[chengjing]

It is my first time to post some pictures for the compition. Here is my question, I got some KOHLRABI and chinese radishes, which Categories shall I put them? root or Brassica?

[chengjing]

Just realisd that Kohlrabi is Brassica, still not sure about chinese mooli tho.

[SarzWix]

You could put your Mooli in 'Root', or, in 'Any Other'

[chengjing]

thanks, sarah, will do that.

[shirlthegirl43]

Should pea pods be closed or opened? I just picked some lovely ones and want to photograph before I shell them

[SarzWix]

Open I reckon, to see the lovely peas (although I think in proper shows the judge opens them)

[shirlthegirl43]

Thanks Sarah, I will try to persuade them to stay open then. How many pods do you reckon?

[SarzWix]

Ooh, I dunno? 3? Or see how many you get that look great?! Or how many fit on a plate? If it's going in "Any Other" then it's up to you

[shirlthegirl43]

I have big plates will go pop them and see how many are nice and evenly matched.

[SarzWix]

I had high hopes for a truss of Black Cherry tomatoes, but when I was picking off the plant next to it I've knocked one off right in the middle of the truss... D'oh!! Still, there's time for the next truss up...

[shirlthegirl43]

Sorry if this is the stupidest question ever

Is a marrow a squash?
