Hints on Exhibiting Vegetables

Beans

Pods should be well matched and of good colour, clear, fresh (snap when bent), free from stringiness, fine grained, smooth, fleshy, clean and well filled.  Specimens should not be washed.

Beets

Size of beet preferred is 5 to 7 cm.  (2 to 2 1/2 in.) diameter.  Tops should be removed to 15cm. (1/2 in.) above crown.  Beets may be placed in cold water preparatory to the soil being carefully wiped off (not scrubbed).  Roots can be trimmed back to not less than 25 mm (1in.).

Broccoli

Broccoli is exhibited with 20 to 25 cm. (8 – 10in.) of stem, while the head is firm and compact and before the flower heads start to open (show yellow).  All leaves on the stem should be removed except for the last 2 – 3 leaves next to the head.

Cabbage

Show cabbage should be solid, fresh, crisp and tender.  Heavier specimens, other conditions being equal, receive preference,  The stem should be trimmed to no longer than 15 mm (1/2 in.) and the head should be trimmed down to 2 layers of outer leaves.

Red Cabbage – should comply with the general requirements of the green cultivars, but should be as dark red as possible.

Carrots

Remove the tops 15mm (1/2 in.) above the crown.  Taproots should be left on.  Roots may be washed but not scrubbed.

Cauliflower

The head should be smooth, clean and firm.  The head formation should be dense, regular, well formed and free from fussiness and small leaves.  A few lower leaves (4 to 6) should remain around the head and should be trimmed squarely across, leaving 12 to 25mm (1/2 to 1 in.) projecting above the head.  The stem should be cut to 7 to 12mm (1/4 to ½ in.) from the lower leaves.

Corn

One – third of the husk should be removed from tip to butt.  Desirable features in sweet corn are well-matched specimens that are typical of the cultivar, with ears well filled from tip to butt.  The kernels should be well filled, even, closely spaced and well rounded.  There should not be wide spaces between rows of kernels and the rows should be straight.  The milk stage of maturity is desirable.

Cucumber

Entries should be well-matched specimens, not overripe, straight, even shaped with blunt ends.  Colour should be dark green, surface smooth or warted (according to cultivar).  No oil or polish should be applied.  Flesh should be thick, tender and crisp.  Stems should be trimmed to 7mm (1/4in.)

Onions

Mature Bulbs – The tops should be cut off 12 to 25mm (1/2 to 1 in.) above the bulb.  The roots should be removed.  The specimens should be well matched, typical of the cultivar, but not less than 4cm (1 3/4in.) in diameter, well ripened with a small neck and bright clean, dry outer scales.  They should be free from sprouts and doubles.  Though coarseness is to be avoided, in Spanish types, other conditions being equal, larger bulbs receive preference.

Pickling Onions – The bulbs should be well-matched, preferably white, firm, well cured, skin clear, bright and clean.  The specimens should be free from doubles, scallions, sprouts and oblong onions (length of axis exceeds diameter by over 7mm (1/4in.).  The preferred diameter is 12 to 18 mm (1/4 to ¾ in.).

Multipliers – The bulbs should be well-matched, firm, well cured, skin clear, bright and clean.

Parsnips

Parsnips should be dug carefully and the soil soaked off with water, to avoid rubbing the skin.  The small rootlets should be trimmed off neatly.  The specimens should be well matched, firm, typical of the cultivar, of good size, not less than 2 ½ cm (1 in.) diameter at the crown with long, even taper and free of side roots.  The skin should be clean, smooth, white, with no discolouration.  The crown should be uniform, and have a small core.  The tops should be trimmed to 12mm (1/2 in.) above the crown.

Peas

The pods should be picked carefully and handled as little as possible to avoid spoiling the “bloom”.  The specimens should be well matched, typical of the cultivar, fresh, well grown but not over mature, deep green in color with “bloom”, well filled with peas which are tender, of good size, uniform and sweet.  Other conditions being equal, a long pod is considered superior to a shorter one.

Peppers

The specimens should be well matched, typical of the cultivar, heavy, firm, with smooth surface and uniform in colour.  About 12mm (1/2 in.) of stem, neatly trimmed, should be present on the fruit.

Potatoes

Tubers that are bright and clean, smooth, shallow-eyed, of uniform size and one cultivar, and which are free from apparent disease, cuts, bruises, sunburn and insect damage have the greatest appeal.  The size of the tuber most desirable is 250gr (9 oz.).  Tubers weighing less are acceptable, but must be uniform in size and not less than 5cm, (2 in.) in diameter.  Disease is indicated by scabbiness, small black specks, cloudy dark spots on the skin, discoloured portions, or by actual decay.  Tubers may be wiped with a damp cloth.

Tomato

The specimens should be well matched, firm, typical of the cultivar, sound, free of cracks, and large blossom end scars, smooth, clean, bright and evenly coloured (for green classes uniform green color).  Calyx left on.
