Vegetables

All 104 vegetables in the library, in one place — the annual workhorses (tomatoes, beans, brassicas, squash), the roots and alliums, and the perennial vegetables like asparagus, rhubarb and Jerusalem artichoke that most seed racks skip entirely.

Vegetables are less about hardiness zone than about timing, so each guide leads with the numbers that actually schedule your year: days to maturity, direct-sow versus transplant, spacing, and germination needs. The companion and antagonist lists are drawn from the same data that powers the rest of the Story Thyme plant library — what to interplant, and the pairings (like alliums beside beans) that genuinely set each other back.

Pest pressure is the honest difference between a seed catalog and a harvest, so the guides name the specific enemies — squash vine borer, cabbage worms, flea beetles — and the non-spray moves that work: row cover timing, trap crops, and resistant varieties where they exist. 44 of the 104 currently have verified in-stock nursery listings — the terracotta price tags on the cards below link to a checked product page, not a search.
