💛 📖 See the GrowVeg book here: https://www.growveg.com/growveg-the-beginners-guide-to-easy-gardening.aspx.
As vegetables are harvested, gaps will inevitably appear in your garden. However, leaving bare soil exposes your garden to weeds and can make it more prone to erosion, plus it means your garden isn’t being as productive as it could be.

Fill those gaps with quick-growing vegetables and you can sneak in a useful extra crop before the end of the year – or even before your fall crops are planted.

In this video we identify 5 fast-maturing vegetables to try in your summer garden and provide simple tips to help you enjoy your harvest as quickly as possible.

  1. Ah… The charming british clip! It's officially 100oF in Texas! Cannot grow anything w/o using buckets of water! We grow okra and sweat in summer!

  2. Hi,
    Looks like you have managed to plant and get good crops of winged beans (3:203:24). Please, please, please… make a video of how to get seeds, how to grow them here in England?
    I'm originally from Sri Lanka and love winged beans. In Sri Lanka, it's a piece of cake to grow them outside all year around, but here I thought it's impossible!!! Please anyone who read this here in England, please help me. Thanks a lot!

  3. Hi Ben I like you way plus your dog to. I got Cat he 17 in may good age . I very enjoy growing veg fruit plus flowers all in Raise beds hour grand is very bad because it over 6 year and build just put bag rubbish in garden don’t care wear they put after build house a bungalows we live in with size 10 by 10 saguare not bad down one side got Raise long and pond to .they other side have even long with veg a fruit in middle have few more raise bed pot in different plants

  4. Kohlrabi…..maybe 60 to 90 days . Early turnips (the faster growers ) such as snowball and purple top Milan……about the same time . Turnip leaves ( "tops" )……even quicker . Leaf beet…….about 90 days , or earlier for small leaves . Spring onion…..70 to 90 days . Beetroot….. about 90 days , or the leaves of golden beet ,even quicker .

    I think the good , fast growing , " follow on " crops are often my choices for " hungry gap " crops to start early in the year with protection . I find these give some of the earliest harvests when harvestable crops are few .
