There is no magic rule about how long it takes for vegetables to spoil. That will depend on many things, including

# Which vegetable # Growing conditions # Harvesting methods # Handling post-harvest # Handling in distribution channel # Handling after purchase Potatoes generally last longer than tomatoes. Dry onions usually last longer than spring onions. Sweet corn might not 'spoil' but is not as good after a few days. Some vegetables require refrigeration, others do better without.

This depends on the type of vegetable and the conditions of storage, chiefly temperature.
