Can you give guinea pigs too much veg?

[DMC]

Just wondering if there is a limit on veg that you could give guinea pigs - would they get ill with too much veg? I give them celery, carrot, cucumber, and romaine mainly.

Also what is meant by "leafy greens"? I give the Romaine but I know iceberg lettuce is dangerous and spinach can only be given in moderation - also they don't like cabbage
