Default Allotment cash crop advice

Yes Tobacco was grown, but was sent to a specialist firm for processing,

then if you wanted to sell it, it would incur duty.

You ask for a low input cash crop to grow on an allotment.
All I can say is you must have much better security than I have ever heard
of before for an allotment, most I know of regularly suffer from "Finger
blight".
What they would make of a saleable crop sitting there I hate to think.
You would be better having a regular surplus every week that you could

sell
on to a few friends, especially if you are growing "Organically"

I'm not saying I'm not bothered if some light fingered idiot nicked the
crop, but if they do, and it was a low maintainance crop that had kept the
weeds down......

Anyway... thanks for the input guys, I reckon next year I'll fill half the
gound with pumpkins....
