Vegetable seed for sowing and cultivation. Each listing states its germination window, sowing depth, spacing and season.
Palak with smooth, thick, dark-green leaves that regrow quickly after each cut — typically six to seven cuttings a season.
Spineless dark-green pods with excellent tenderness, and field tolerance to yellow vein mosaic — the reason it stays in rotation season after season.
Straight, light-green fruit around 1 kg at picking, on a vigorous vine that keeps setting through the season.
Bush type with long, fleshy, light-green pods that stay tender and stringless well past the usual picking stage.
Spindle-shaped glossy green fruit with smooth regular ribbing, about 100 g each and borne consistently over a long picking window.
Flat, stringless, light-green pods on a compact bush that crops heavily over three to four picks.
An IIHR selection with long, slender, highly pungent fruit that dries to a deep red. Holds up well in the field through the monsoon.
Medium-large, 3-4 lobed fruit with good wall thickness. An IIHR release that performs across a wider temperature band than most bells.
An IIHR F1 carrying triple disease resistance — leaf curl, bacterial wilt and early blight. Firm, deep-red fruit that travels well, which is why it dominates market plantings in the south.
Long light-green fruit, 25 cm and slender, from IIHR. Holds quality in warm weather and crops over a long window.
Green-leaved chaulai with tender stems, ready for the first cut in three weeks and quick to regrow after.
Flattish round fruit, deep orange flesh, about 1 kg — small enough to use in one go, which is why home growers prefer it.
An early wrinkled-seeded pea with dark-green, well-filled pods of eight to nine sweet grains. Dwarf, so no staking.
A DOGR release for kharif and late-kharif sowing, with dark-red bulbs and better bolting tolerance than older reds.
Blocky, thick-walled sweet pepper, dark green ripening to red. The standard bell type for open field and polyhouse alike.
Round, straight, stringless pods, early and heavy. A dependable bush bean where the season is short.
Globe-shaped root with deep, evenly coloured flesh and no white rings. Tops are usable as greens while the root sizes.
Compact, solid round head about 1-1.5 kg on a short stem — early, uniform, and easy to cut cleanly.
Crisphead lettuce forming a firm, well-wrapped head with good tipburn tolerance in the rabi window.
Long, smooth, pure-white root up to 30 cm with a mild flavour and tender texture. Needs deep worked soil to size properly.
Bred at Parbhani for yellow vein mosaic resistance. Straight, dark pods that stay tender a day longer than most.
Dark-green, straight, 20 cm fruit with a good tolerance to downy and powdery mildew. A dependable trellis cucumber.
Round root, white below and purple above the shoulder, sweet and tender when pulled at tennis-ball size.
Pure white, medium-long root that stays mild and crisp even when sown in warm weather — unusual for a radish.
Smooth, dark-green cylindrical fruit that stays tender well past the usual picking size. Good for hot, humid conditions.
An early-group cauliflower that curds in warm weather, letting you harvest well before the main-season crop.
Sows in both the rainy and summer seasons, as the name says. Dark-green, tapering, well-ridged fruit around 18 cm.
Methi with quick, uniform emergence and dark-green aromatic leaves. Two to three cuttings before it runs to seed.
Light-green fruit turning deep red, 9-10 cm, genuinely pungent. Suits both green picking and drying for powder.
Soft, thick leaves with a high yield per cut and slower bolting than most palak, so the picking window is longer.
Deep-orange root with a small core and good sugar. Suits the tropical rabi window where European types will not size.
A dual green-and-red type with broad, tender leaves and good yield across both summer and monsoon sowings.
Long, light-green, stringless pods on a semi-erect bush, with tolerance to bacterial blight. Crops fast in warm weather.
Short, oval, dark-purple fruit borne close to the ground on a compact plant — a good choice where space is tight or wind is a problem.
Flat-round heads with genuine field tolerance to black rot, which is what usually ruins a cabbage crop in a wet year.
Club-shaped ridged fruit, 15-20 cm, picked young and tender. Vigorous vine that covers a trellis quickly.
Guar with tender, straight pods borne in clusters, picked young. Tolerates heat and poor soil better than most legumes.
Cylindrical fruit without a neck, 25-30 cm, light green and uniform. Early and heavy bearing on a modest vine.
Dwarf plant carrying dark-green curved pods, early and concentrated in setting so most of the crop picks together.
Long, glossy purple fruit 25-30 cm at picking, tender and almost seedless when harvested young. The default long brinjal across North India.
Flattish-round bulb with an attractive bronze-red skin and good field storage. A standard kharif and late-kharif onion.
Round, medium-large fruit with good firmness and a long shelf life after picking. Tolerant of the leaf curl pressure that ends many summer crops early.
An early determinate release from IARI that sets uniform, slightly flattened red fruit in heavy clusters. Reliable under North Indian rabi conditions and a standard choice for kitchen plots.
A red, self-coloured carrot with a high lycopene content and no distinct core. Sweeter than the usual tropical types.
The long-established IARI bhindi. Dark-green five-ridged pods, quick to first pick and forgiving of ordinary soil.
Snow-white, compact, well-curded heads around 600-700 g. A late-group variety for the cold part of the rabi season.
Early, cylindrical, light-green fruit about 15-18 cm, crisp and mild. Sets well without a pollinator in the open field.
Round to oval fruit with a waxy bloom, stores for months after harvest without refrigeration.
Round fruit with light-green skin turning yellow-brown, firm orange flesh and good keeping quality.
Pale-green, flattish-round knob with tender white flesh. Quick to mature and does not need the long cold cauliflower wants.
