Name five different vegetables of summer and winter along with their sowing time.
Answers
the summer vegetables:
1-Beans
Beans make a healthy addition to summer salads and side dishes. Beans are easily grown from seeds, and require between 40 and 60 days to maturity.
2-Eggplant
The time to plant eggplant is usually during the late spring. However, eggplant grows well when planted through the month of June
3-Carrots, Cucumber and Corn
The month of June lends itself to growing cucumbers and sweet corn. Sweet corn takes between 60 and 95 days to reach maturity.
4-Peppers, Pumpkins and Squashes
Peppers add flavor and spice to your summer vegetable garden. Peppers are best grown from seedlings. While most peppers are planted during the spring, planting can continue up through the month of June to ensure fresh peppers all summer long.
5-Tomatoes
Tomatoes are members of the nightshade plant family. Tomatoes and eggplants share similar pests that often mean devastation for your crops when planted in close proximity. Instead, plant tomatoes with herbs such as sweet basil, which tomato worms avoid.
winter vegetables:
1. Onions and Shallots
Autumn planting onion sets are easy to grow and will virtually look after themselves over winter.
2. Garlic
Growing garlic couldn't be easier and there are lots of varieties to choose from for autumn planting.
3. Peas
Enjoy an early crop of peas next spring. Autumn sowings of rounded varieties such as Pea 'Kelvedon Wonder' and Pea 'Meteor'are particularly hardy and will give you a head start next season. You will be the envy of the allotment when you start harvesting peas 3 or 4 weeks earlier than other growers.
4. Perpetual Spinach
Perpetual spinach makes an excellent 'cut and come again' crop that will produce huge yields of tasty leaves. Early autumn sowings will keep you supplied with tender young leaves throughout winter and with regular harvesting it will continue to crop well into summer! Be sure to remove the flowers to prevent it running to seed.
5. Broad Beans
Autumn sown broad beans can be harvested in spring up to a month earlier than spring sown plants. Broad Bean 'Aquadulce Claudia' is one of the best for autumn sowings, being particularly quick to establish. Once the plants are well grown you can even use the plant tips - they are delicious wilted with a little butter.
