0:51
and then cook them in the air fryer
0:53
absolutely delicious next up is carrots
0:57
obviously carrots need to be grown in
0:58
special soil not uh stony soil or
1:01
they'll fork i've never had a look
1:03
growing carrots so I can't give tips on
1:05
carrots unfortunately but have a go at
1:08
growing some carrots next up are French
1:11
beans now you can get sewing more French
1:14
beans if you've got some in already
1:15
start some off now for a successional
1:17
growing and you'll be harvesting them
1:20
later on in the year after the ones that
1:22

1:25
get some French beans in next up is
1:28
runner beans now a lot of people have
1:30
started them beginning of May time and
1:32
they're probably up to the tops of the
1:34
canes near enough already but if you
1:36
wanting a later harvest and keep that
1:38
harvest growing get some more in now and
1:41
get some growing use a bed that you've
1:44
had for like your garlic or your winter
1:47
onions use that space wisely and get
1:49
some more runner beans in next up are
1:52
corettes now only plant a few plants
1:55
because they do produce a lot and you'll
1:57
end up giving loads away and be
1:59
inundated with corettes once you get
2:01
them growing they are fantastic
2:03
vegetables to grow so if you've not
2:06
started some corettes start them off now
2:09
pumpkins and squash now obviously
2:12
pumpkins needed to be planted around
2:14
March time for to get some nice big ones
2:16
but if you've not got some pumpkins in
2:19
get some in now and they won't be
2:21
massive but you might get a good crop
2:23
from them uh a nice decent smallsized
2:26
pumpkin for November next up is radish
2:30
one of the fastest growing vegetables
2:32
out there with great rewards from it and
2:35
it's a space saver if you're wanting to
2:38
fill space in sew some radish and you
2:41
will be harvesting them within 6 to 10
2:44
weeks so put some radish in fill them
2:47
spaces up and the seeds are really cheap
2:49
for radish as well so get some sewn and
2:52
get some in next up is turnips now
2:56
turnips are a winter veg they will be
2:58
ready around winter time and again
3:01
they'll fill a bed which you've used
3:03
already for like your garlic or your
3:04
winter onions so if you're harvesting

3:13
year next up is lettuce now lettuce
3:17

3:19
they will grow fast so if you've got
3:21
some lettuce in already sew some more
3:24
and you can plant it where you'll be
3:26
harvesting the lettuce from that you've
3:28
got in at the moment or you can fill
3:30

3:34
gaps in and get some lettuce growing
