Since re-opening, Veg 2 Gro sales, as monitored by the GTN Bestsellers Epos analysis, are 42% up year on year. However due to closures during the key sales time for Veg 2 Gro year to date sales are still 42% down on last year.
With all this enthusiasm to grow veg and many new gardeners missing out on being able to plant seed potatoes in the spring there could be a bumper demand for Christmas Spuds which will be coming on sale at the start of July. Have you got your orders in and displays planned?
Cucumbers were the Top of the Veg last week. Cucumber F1 was the No 1 Bestseller, Cucumber Mini 8cm was at No 3 and Cucumber Ridge 8cm at No 4.
The Top 10 also included two Courgette lines: Quantil Courgette 8cm at No 2 and Courgette Golden 8cm at No 7.
Farplants Strawberry Royal Red Hanging Pot 25cm was the highest new entry into the GTN Chart at No 23.
