If that\u2019s not you, never fear, some vegetables can give you a harvest in just thirty days<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>No matter whether you have access to a whole vegetable garden or a few plant pots, some veggies can be grown and harvested in just one month, while others will bear fruit in two. There\u2019s nothing more motivating than taking care of plants and watching them grow, plus, you get to practice your patience too!<br \/>\nTo start, you\u2019ll need good soil rich in organic matter, compost and humus, or similar, to ensure healthy growth. They\u2019ll also need at least six hours a day of direct light and watering. Keep a careful eye out for pests, especially if you want an organic crop, as they\u2019re easier to tackle if detected early on.<\/p>\n<p>Having a vegetable garden needn\u2019t take up too much space, but another viable option is to use pots and keep them on your terrace or else, try planting climbers such as peas, that\u2019ll grow against the wall, covering railings and supports.<\/p>\n<p>One of the quickest veg off the block is watercress, which will have you harvesting sprouts in just ten days for delicious salads, soups and stews. Close on its heels come radishes, which can be harvested in twenty-five to thirty days. For two plentiful crops, they\u2019re best planted at the beginning of spring and again at the end of summer, but ensure soil temperature never drops below 8\u00baC. Also in the running are lettuces, which bloom in less than thirty days, depending on variety. Other super-fast growers are chives, which take less than thirty days and broccoli, which will sprout after forty or fifty-five days if planted in spring.<\/p>\n<p>A second group of vegetables that requires a tad more patience and between forty and sixty days before landing on your kitchen table includes delicious and nutritious pumpkin and baby carrots. The exact number of days depends on which variety you\u2019re planting. Cucumbers and chard grown in sandy soil are rich in nutrients and with the sun\u2019s heat take between fifty and fifty-f ive days.<\/p>\n<p>A third group that will have you playing a longer waiting game includes those that need fifty to sixty days to see the light of day, such as beetroot, snow peas and beans. Spinach, too, may take longer, but it can provide two harvests if planted in spring and in late summer and in a soil temperature of more than 7\u00b0C.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kitchen gardening requires restraint and patience.
