To prepare an attractive display, consider the following
when you select and prepare vegetables for exhibit:
1. Trueness to type- specimens should be typical of the
variety in shape, color and size.
2. Quality and condition- specimens should be edible,
in prime condition, and free from blemishes or damage
from insects, disease or handling. Specimens with
deepest color are preferred.
3. Uniformity- specimens should be alike in size, shape,
color, texture and stage of maturity.
4. Size- contrary to popular opinion, large entries
do not have a competitive edge over other entries
(except for special entries such as largest pumpkin,
watermelon, head of cabbage).
5. Largeness- suggests coarseness, over-maturity and
possible poor quality. Medium-sized specimens are
more typical of a variety and most desired.
6. Cleanliness- dirt detracts from the natural
attractiveness of vegetables and conveys an
unfavorable impression to judges and the public.
