0:02
in June well this is the video for you
0:06
so make sure you stick around and see
0:08
what vegetables you can grow this month
0:11
in your a lotments and gardens to get
0:13
great crops throughout the summer period
0:16
so sit back relax and let's enjoy
0:18
today's episode make sure you save it so
0:20
that you can look back and see what
0:23
vegetables you can sew this month so
0:26
first up is beetroot now beetroot is an
0:30
easy crop grower i've never had any
0:32
issues with growing beetroot it grows
0:35
fantastic you get great round circular
0:38
beetroots and you can obviously eat it
0:40
pickled you can eat it hot and fresh
0:43
which is absolutely gorgeous i didn't
0:44
realize how nice it was or I've started
0:47
cooking mine in the air fryer as chips
0:50
and they come out really nice i've got a
0:52
chipping machine where you just peel the
0:54
beetroot and then you chip them and
0:56
stick them in the air fryer and they
0:58
come out delicious so yeah try beetroot
1:01
and you can sew them in between other
1:03
vegetables as well as a space filler you
1:05
can sew them straight in the ground at
1:07
this time of year and once you get
1:09
growing then you can divide them up and
1:11
plant them out in spaces up is one that
1:14
I've always struggled with growing i've
1:16
never had much success with growing it
1:18
whatsoever and the next up is carrots
1:22
yes carrots i've seen so many people
1:25
grow great carrots but I've never had
1:27
any luck in the 20 years that I've sewn
1:29
them obviously they need to be sewn in
1:32
not stony soil so they need to be in
1:34
like compost or sandy soil uh so that if
1:38
they're not planted in stony soil
1:40
because if you plant them in that they
1:42
will split and divide and then you'll
1:44
get funny looking carrots and they don't
1:46
always grow too well and obviously
1:48
higher up off the ground stops the
1:50
carrot fly as well so if you're wanting
1:52
to grow some carrots give it a try this
1:55
month and let me know if you manage to
1:56
grow any successfully up is French beans
2:00
french beans are great croppers and you
2:02
will get some great rewards from them
2:04
you can sew them straight into the
2:05
ground but make sure you protect them
2:07
from the pigeons because the pigeons
2:09
will eat the tops off them once we've
2:10
started growing through they absolutely
2:12
love devouring them so plant them in a
2:15
line but you'll need some netting or
2:17
some fencing for them to grow up and
2:19
they'll need to be supported until they
2:21
get growing and then they'll interwined
2:22
in between all the netting and support
2:25
themselves is runna beans if you've not
2:27
planted any runner beans you've still
2:28
got time to plant some again you can
2:30
either start them off in pots until
2:32
they're nice and tall or you can plant
2:34
them in the ground but again the pigeons
2:36
will devour them so make sure you
2:38
protect them from them and support them
2:41
up some canes because they grow nice and
2:43
tall and you can get some great runna
2:45
beans and obviously the more you pick
2:47
them the more they'll keep producing and
2:50
don't let them get too long or they'll
2:52
become stringy so runna beans is a
2:54
fantastic crop to grow next up is
2:57
corettes if you've not sewn any corettes
3:00
pumpkins or squash this is your last
3:03
warning call to plant them and get them
3:06
sewn obviously you might not get as many
3:08
or you might not get as big a pumpkins
3:10
but you still have chance to plant them
3:13
so get some planted this weekend get
3:15
them sewn and get them growing and see
3:18
what size pumpkin you can get obviously
3:20
like I said you won't get massive
3:21
pumpkins if you started them now as
3:23
usually start them around March time to
3:25
get some massive pumpkins growing so
3:28
give it a try sew some corettes squash
3:31
and pumpkins fill in a gap which you may
3:33
have on your a lotment from harvesting
3:35
your garlic or your winter onions and
3:38
get growing some squash radish radish is
3:41
the one that's fastest growing
3:42
vegetables it takes about 4 to 8 weeks
3:45
to get growing and get some crops on
3:48
them and you can again fill spaces in
3:51
between other vegetables just sprinkle
3:53
them straight into the soil and they
3:54
will grow fantastic radish are one of
3:57
the easiest things to grow and you will
3:59
get great rewards from it as well so if
4:02
you're wanting something to add to your
4:04
salad to give it a kick get growing some
4:07
radish turnips if you're wanting a
4:09
winter veg get sewing some turnips and
4:12
you will get some turnips ready to
4:15
harvest around October November time and
4:19
they're quite fast at growing so you
4:21
might even get them before then again
4:23
use a bed that you've used in the past
4:26
or a fresh bed but that you've not used
4:28
yet not necessarily grow them in pots
4:30
they need to be in the ground to get
4:32
great turn it rewards next up is lettuce
4:35
now lettuce can be sewn you can grow
4:38
some cut and come again lettuce so that
4:40
means when you're ready to harvest some
4:42
you can just snip some off and it'll
4:44
keep growing so rather than keep growing
4:47
icebergs because those aren't cut and
4:49
come again once you've harvested them
4:51
you've harvested them whereas cut and
4:53
come again you can just have one of a
4:55
few plants in and keep snipping them and
4:58
you'll keep getting harvest all the time
4:59
so have quite a few plants so that you
5:01
can keep harvesting them at different
5:03
levels is spinach want to become big and
5:06
strong like Papey i wish I could now is
5:10
the time to plant spinach it doesn't
5:11
like hot weather so it's ideal to get
5:14
sewing some now I know it will possibly
5:16
get hotter but spinach tends to bolt so
5:20
if you're wanting spinach plant it in
5:23
the cooler time and you will get some
5:25
great rewards again you can just keep
5:26
snipping off a bit as and when you need
5:28
them obviously you need quite a few
5:29
plants because it does shrink when you
5:31
cook it with stuff so get quite a few
5:33
plants growing and you can get some
5:36
great spinach growing to add to
5:39
your scrambled eggs or however you eat
5:42
your spinach is kale a winter vegetable
5:46
that you can harvest all the way through
5:48
winter kale is a tough plant and it will
5:51
withstand the cold weather so if you
5:53
wanting to harvest throughout the winter
5:55
period now is the time to plant kale
5:57
there's plenty of varieties out there
5:59
there's purple there's green there's
6:00
curly and you can either boil it or you
6:04
can air fry it or you can cook it
6:06
there's plenty of ways of eating kale so
6:09
if you want to harvest throughout the
6:11
winter get growing some kale and you can
6:13
get some delicious growing vegetables
6:16
next up is spring onions again another
6:19
great easy cropper and a great space
6:22
filler you can sew them straight into
6:23
the soil just sprinkle them in in a row
6:26
and you can get some great spring onions
6:28
and you'll be harvesting them all the
6:29
way through summer for great rewards
6:32
again just fill in some gaps or where
6:35
you've harvested small vegetables or you
6:37
can actually grow them in pots as well
6:39
ideal for pots so if you've not got a
6:41
big a lotment or garden sew some in a
6:43
pot and you will be harvesting some
6:45
delicious spring onions next up is peas
6:49
now peas are getting to the end of
6:51
sewing season so if you're wanting some
6:53
late crop peas now is the time to be
6:56
planting them to get your late crop
6:58
again they need to grow up netting or
7:00
fencing to get great rewards from them
7:03
and once you've supported them and got
7:04
them growing they'll cling on and
7:06
they'll support themselves and you can
7:09
harvest some fantastic peas now peas are
7:11
absolutely gorgeous people tend to eat
7:14
them all at their a lotment before they

this year now is the time to sew it for
7:35
the final time get some planted into
7:39
trays once it's big enough plant it
7:41
outside make sure it's in square blocks
7:43
not in rows as they cross-pollinate with
7:45
one another when the wind blows and you
7:48
could be harvesting some sweet corn
