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.
