Grasses
I am surprised nobody seems to have mentioned the most commonly used grass that can grow up to 300mm in a day under the right conditions and can be used for many other things apart from eating. Bamboo shoots, delicious and found in many stir fries and Asian dishes. Having been to Asia on a number of occasions I am always surprised how useful bamboo is. Fast growing, edible, able to be turned into furniture, chop sticks and other utensils, what else do you want?
My two cents worth,
Huey
