Perennial veg: This winter I am looking into growing perennial vegetables, because aside from the fact that there’s no need to buy more seeds to plant more vegetables and thus save money that way, there is also the idea when it comes to perennials that as the roots become deeper they require less watering.
Perennial vegetables are taking water and nutrients from deeper in the soil, so there’s also less of a requirement for plant food with perennials. Add to this the fact that you’re not spending the time preparing the ground, sowing and transplanting, then it means you’ll have more time to spend on other vegetables too! This all sounds good to me.
