#Radish

Radishes are a great veggie for beginners. They grow super quickly, they are delish, and are quite unproblematic to grow. This root veggie thrives in full sun, but can also succeed in more shady places. Gardeners recommend sowing the seeds directly into the ground and not transplanting them. Radishes don’t usually struggle with pests and are on a level frost-tolerant. Sow them half an inch deep and thin out the seedling later on at least two to three inches apart.

#Lettuce

Summer is all about good salads. And some of the best salads include lettuce. So, why not grow some yourself? In general, you can grow lettuce all year round, which means you have plenty of time to enjoy its fresh crunchiness. When it comes to sowing, just sow the seeds and cover them with a layer of compost. You can a few seeds each week to avoid a glut. Once the seedling have grown a bit, it’s recommended to space them out four to eight inches. This veggie does well with transplanting so you can start the seeds inside.

#Green beans

Yum, yum, yum! Green beans are one of the easiest vegetables to grow and they are delicious. This veggie offers you two types of growing styles – a bush or a pole. The bush variety is compact, while the pole grows vertically and makes it space efficient. It depends on what you prefer. Other than that, green beans even do well in poor soil and grow superfast (50 to 60 days). When it comes to sowing, pant them one inch deep and make sure they are two to four inches apart.

#Beets

Oh, beets are wonderful. They are compact, colorful, and pretty easy to grow. You can ensure you get beets all summer long by making successive planting every couple of weeks from the spring. Beets like a good, direct, sunny position and should be sown directly into the ground, as they don’t do great with transplants. Sow these seeds one to two inches apart and half an inch deep. It will take around two months for them to mature and then you can start to enjoy this delicious root veggie.

#Peas

Mmm, who doesn’t love a good pea soup? Now imagine it being made with your very own homegrown peas. Peas love some good chilly weather, so make sure you plant them on time. Planting them later on means that the plant will grow, but there won’t be anything to harvest. Give this veggie something to climb on and watch it grow! You can work peas in the soil around two weeks before the last spring frost for your region.

#Cucumber

If you’ve got a place where this veggie can climb, you are pretty much set. Most cucumber varieties love the warm weather and like to crawl, which means they need the space to do so. Provide them with a cage or trellis for them to climb on vertically, if you want them to take up less space. Gardener’s do recommend planting this seed directly into the ground and not transplanting it.
