Here is a compilation of the varieties that grew in the winter trial and how they fared. Now mind you this is for my trial in my climate and we had some fertility issues and a few freezes.
A 10 is I would not till the earth without planting this variety and a 1 being I would not waste my time planting free seeds that were given to me and someone planting them for me.
carrot- Nelson 7
carrot- Sugarsnax 6.5
collards - Champion 6
dandelion - Catalogna special 8
mustards - Green wave 6.6
arugula - 7
lettuce - Black seeded simpson 9
lettuce - Parris island romaine 2
lettuce - Sylvesta butterhead 8.5
lettuce - Cerbiatta oakleaf 6
lettuce - Natividad red lollo 2
lettuce - New red fire 8
escarole - Natacha 1
escarole - Eros 1
cabbage - Gonzales 2
cauliflower - snow crown 5
beets - Red ace 7
radish - 1.5 (had a bunch of cracking)
snowpeas - froze out
The onion and garlic have not finished yet so we are still waiting on those. My favorite were the carrots, beets, and the few lettuces that did well in our climate. If you had similar results or different results let us know and please state your climate and location.
