Most people visiting this site already have some experience with gardening, but I know many of you will be planting vegetable gardens for the first time ever this year. When planning a garden, the biggest and most important question is, “What should I plant?” It really depends on what you want to grow. But if you’re a newbie, it’s best to start with something really easy.
In this video, Self Sufficient Me talks about 5 vegetables that are almost too easy to grow. Even if you don’t take good care of your garden, you might still get a lot of food from these crops. And if you do try, you’re almost guaranteed to have a huge harvest.
The fast-growing vegetables he talks about are:
- Beans – There’s a reason cowboys and pioneers ate so many beans. They grow well in many climates, and they can be dried, canned, or eaten fresh.
- Asian Greens – It’s almost impossible to screw these up. They’re very nutritious, and they can be eaten cooked or raw.
- Zucchini – These grow super fast, they’re a very versatile food, and they come in many varieties such as round, yellow, and white.
- Carrots – This is a wonderful plant for beginners. Because it’s a root vegetable, it can grow well in most climates, and it’s very good for your health.
- Radishes – These only take a few weeks to go from seeds to fully grown. Seed them every couple of weeks throughout the growing season.
