I'm working on a 2nd tier of organisation - for each day of the week - but I'll spare you that until its become more than a completely scatty idea whirling around in an empty space above my neck
Funny you should ask that, ham, as I'm struggling with a turnipy thing that produces edible shoots called "broccoletti". I can't decide whether its a root or a leaf thing.
I only have a couple of days to make up my mind (if its a root) but if its a leaf I have a few weeks. Of course, if its a shoot................
At least, its not a fruit
Hi VC,
I am intrigued by your planning method and need to point out a significant problem with your approach.
If you work on true botanical classification you have missed out a planning week for the STEMS ie potatoes, celery, rhubarb, kohl rabi, chard, asparagus etc.
You must remember that onions are really a leaf in botanical terms as are leeks.
Calabrese, cauliflower, marrows and squashes, cucumbers are flowers and vegetable fruits and you haven't a week for these.
Finally, what about the seeds - sweet corn, mushrooms, beans and peas?
Other than these issues I think the system has merit!!!!

^^^ There's always one who comes along to confuse me
Would it work if I related it to the parts that are eaten-ish?
Potatoes and kohlrabi are roots;
Rhubarb, asparagus, celery, spinach, chard, onions & leeks are shoots (stems)
Sweetcorn, peas, beans, squashes are "fruits"
Cabbages caulis broccoli are "leaves". I know cauli is a flower but in my head its a green, which is a leaf.
