20 UK Allotment Crops Ranked by Return (£1 Seed → £60?)
The 20 most valuable vegetables to grow on a UK allotment — ranked, costed and matched to the British climate. Whether it's your first season or your fifth, this is the complete starter list, from the most dependable foundation crop to the highest-return finish. Most new growers fill a plot with what they fancy, not with what pays them back. On a British allotment, that mistake is expensive. So we treat the soil like an investment portfolio: every square metre is capital, every seed packet a position. This video ranks all 20 crops by real return — yield per square metre, seed cost versus supermarket value, and how each one fits the UK growing year. You'll get the sowing window, the realistic yield, and the honest ROI for every crop — plus the one cheap, almost-impossible-to-kill leaf that quietly out-earns nearly everything else on the list. 📥 FREE DOWNLOAD — The Complete Starter Portfolio (PDF) Every crop with its scorecard, planting calendar and return, in one printable planning sheet: 👉 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Qob6... ⏱️ CHAPTERS 00:00 The crop that out-earns the rest 00:33 Why your plot is a portfolio 02:11 No.1 — Potatoes 03:07 No.2 — Radishes 04:02 No.3 — Beetroot 04:58 No.4 — Lettuce 05:53 No.5 — Courgettes 06:50 No.6 — Broad Beans 07:45 No.7 — Carrots 08:41 No.8 — Spinach 09:39 No.9 — Spring Onions 10:33 No.10 — Kale (Cavolo Nero) 11:30 No.11 — Garlic 12:26 No.12 — Climbing French Beans 13:22 No.13 — Swiss Chard 14:17 No.14 — Peas 15:13 No.15 — Mangetout 16:08 No.16 — Tomatoes 17:06 No.17 — Rocket 18:00 No.18 — Runner Beans 18:56 No.19 — Pea Shoots & Microgreens 19:52 No.20 — Salad Mix 20:50 How the 20 work together as a system 21:54 Your free planning sheet 🌱 ABOUT THE CAPITAL PLOT Systematic gardening intelligence for UK growers who treat their soil like an investment portfolio.
