0:03
in June welcome to Gardening with Ben
0:07
We're going to tell you what the fastest
0:09
vegetables are to get sewing now in June
0:12
ready for a fast harvest because there's
0:15
still plenty of vegetables out there
0:16
that you can sew If you've not checked
0:18
out my other videos go and check them
0:20
out We talk about everything that we can
0:22
sew this month and sharing the tips and
0:25
advice So the fastest growing of all is
0:28
the radish Now radishes can be ready to
0:31
harvest in 3 to four weeks depending on
0:33
the size of the radish that you actually
0:35
want but radish is the fastest growing
0:38
and will only take around 3 to four
0:40
weeks for a decent size radish to add to
0:43
your salad Next up is lettuce Lettuce
0:47
cut and come again lettuce So if you're
0:49
wanting lettuce on a regular basis that
0:51
you can just keep harvesting as and when
0:53
you need it grow some cut and come again
0:56
lettuce and that could be ready in four
0:58
to six weeks depending on the weather
1:00
obviously And if you're growing them in
1:02
a poly tunnel they will grow really fast
1:05
well Next up is spinach If you want to
1:09
become big and strong like Papey not
1:11
like me grow some spinach Again that
1:14
will take only four to six weeks to get
1:17
harvesting from it and you can just keep
1:19
snipping it off as and when you need it
1:21
So make sure you've got quite a few
1:23
plants and you can keep snipping it off
1:26
and getting a harvest on a regular
1:29
basis Next up is pack choy Now a great
1:33
addition to any salad and obviously you
1:35
can cook it as well and it tastes
1:38
absolutely delicious It is a delicious
1:40
vegetable to grow Now pack choy will
1:43
take around four to five weeks to
1:45
harvest from it Again you can just keep
1:47
snipping it off as and when you need it
1:50
and you can get great rewards from it So
1:52
again grow quite a few plants and then
1:55
you can harvest them on a regular basis
1:57
and keep picking the pack choy to have
2:00
in your salads and in your
2:03
meals Next up is spring onions Now
2:06
depending on the size of the spring
2:07
onion bulb that you want you could be
2:09
harvesting them between six and eight
2:12
weeks Now spring onions are absolutely
2:14
delicious Obviously you can grow them
2:17
for longer and they'll get bigger onions
2:19
on them But if you just wanted a small
2:21
little snack grow some spring onions
2:23
Spring onions are easy to grow You can
2:26
sew them straight into the ground Just
2:28
dig a little trench sprinkle them in let
2:31
them grow You don't need to separate
2:32
them too much and you will get great
2:35
rewards You can also grow them in pots
2:37
as well for great rewards if you've not
2:40
got an actual garden yourself Next up is
2:44
turnip Now Ed does anybody like turnip
2:46
turnips is usually like a winter
2:48
vegetable what you harvest and depending
2:50
again on the size of the turnip that you
2:52
want You could be harvesting it in
2:54
between 8 to 10 weeks So it's not a
2:58
vegetable what takes a long time People
3:00
often like to add it to mashed potato or
3:02
eat it in chunks There's lots of things
3:05
that you can do with a turnip It's an
3:07
acquired taste a bit like a swede But
3:10
yeah turnip is a great one to sew for
3:15
results Next up is dwarf French beans
3:18
Again dwarf French beans don't take long
3:20
to start producing those beans on them
3:23
And especially if you keep picking them
3:26
you'll keep harvesting them and they'll
3:28
keep growing beans on them Again they
3:30
can take between 8 to 10 weeks So
3:32
they're not a slow vegetable to grow and
3:35
you can get some great rewards
3:37
especially if you want them with your
3:38
Sunday dinner and with your
