Quiz on herbs and vegetables. Two clues stumping me.
Clue 1. Fold exchanges Potash for direction to follow permit.
Clue 2. Movement loses 1000 and exchanges drink for nitrogen.

To give you an idea this clue "A grave without Boron collects mixed grain" the answer was TOMATO.
That was TOMB take away the B and OAT mixed up gives you TOM ATO.
Convoluted did you say!

2 ONION
movement = motion
loses means remove the M = otion
exchange drink for nitrogen means replace the T (tea) with N = onion

1. lettuce permit = let + fold = tuck, remove k (potash) and substitute e (east)
2 ONION
movement = motion
loses means remove the M = otion
exchange drink for nitrogen means replace the T (tea) with N = onion
^^^ 2nd line of working should read: loses 1000 means remove the M = otion

Just twigged the first one the answer is LETTUCE .Fold is TUCK, lose the K for the Potash and put in E for direction. Permit is LET so LETTUCE. That's only taken me about three days!
