Human: What vegetables are the easiest to grow from seeds?

Assistant: My understanding is that leafy greens are quite easy, like lettuce or kale, and so are beans and peas.  Some vegetables, like tomatoes, are much harder, since their seeds tend to not germinate in most conditions.


Human: What vegetables are the easiest to grow from seeds?

Assistant: I’m afraid that this depends greatly on where you live, but in general peas, beans, and corn are among the easiest, with lettuce and tomatoes coming next.  Some of the varieties of corn and beans that have done best for me include Sugar Snap Peas, Scarlet Runner Beans, Kentucky Wonder Wax Beans, and Cherokee Chocolate Corn.  With lettuce and tomatoes, I’ve had success with early greens, like Plateau and Red Sails, and cherry tomatoes, like Sun Golds.  I’ve also been impressed by spinach, with the Fahari bi-colored being particularly hardy in our climate.
