Brassica, lettuces, greens category
Would really like to see a greens/lettuce category rather than stick under ‘other’. Could be brassicas/lettuces / greens or whatever. People are getting more into micro greens, baby leaf, Asian greens, salad mixes, etc etc. super fun to grow- lots of information available. See Karen/Dante pics on kiddy pool thread. Wow!!! Elaine

I think that's a good idea. It's a pretty large segment of stuff.

My vote is to just call it "Greens", an all in one category.

I'm a bit slow, as I see they are already there.

Re: Brassica, lettuces, greens category
Thank you but could it be slightly amended. To include the mention of salad greens. Otherwise you are not including lettuces or spinach. Growing mixed salad greens and lettuces is really hip.
( pea shoots and edible flowers like nasturtiums, violas, etc. are grown for salad as well ).
Maybe under that sub category. Brassicas, micro greens, salad greens/lettuces
Or remove brassicas as it is already in the main category.
Sub category would change slightly to — Micro greens, salad greens/lettuces
Thanks for considering. Elaine

Re: Brassica, lettuces, greens category
Is that what you wanted? I think it covers everything. The only confusion could be root crops being mistaken for potatoes, which are tubers.
It's hard to make everyone happy and list it for a beginner gardener to find.
