Vegetables for continuous harvest There is nothing like having a continuous harvest of tasty vegetables in the garden to eat. But sometimes its either a feast or a famine. Here is a simple way to always have one of the staples ready to cook. Some vegetables grow best in winter and some best in summer but these beauties can be grown anytime!
We recommend planting some every month for continual harvest:
Carrots - all varieties good Beetroots - slow to grow through winter but still can be done with regular feeding Spring Onion - great all year round and a good alternative to onions when unavailable Leek - slower through summer but can be done
Kohlrabi - a great tasting round stem that tastes cross between radish and turnip - wonderful eaten raw with drizzle of lemon
Snowpeas - pretty much grow all year in most regions Spinach/Silverbeet - especially the Rainbow variety Radish - try ther mixed heirloom seed range Rocket - Wild and Salad rocket grow throughout the year Lettuce - especially cut and come agains types Wong Bok - a quick crop to harvest anytime of the year Spouting broccoli - will continue to develop heads throughout the year, smaller in summer but still the best vegie for you!
Pak Choi - a quick crop to harvest anytime of the year Mini Cannonball Cabbage - keep growing throughout summer for coleslaw Savoy Cabbage - good in semi shade throughout summer
