I guess that most of us learn over a matter of years though and perhaps don't realise the knowledge we absorb until it becomes a habit.
it took several days. and am still not sure i got number plants each
vegetable type correct with exception of tomatoes.
one side note uff it is five articles. i broke one up so it would
be easier to read when posted here.
24 Turnips, 3 Cabbages, 14 Brussel Sprouts and a Carrot.
The Carrot was a wild guess.
