Im glad you brought up the fact that for leafy greens and root plants you dont need to harvest the entire plant you can just pick a couple leaves off multiple plants and allow the roots to grow bigger or get them to seeding stage so you can collect for next season. I dont think many people know this and its a great way to save time and effort instead of constantly replanting. I also feed my chickens alot of the older leaves and bug eaten ones so nothing goes to waste and for them its a tasty treat.

My most beloved fast growing, big harvest plant is swiss chard. Together with onions and potatos a great mediterranean dish, roasted in olive oil, seasoned with a little salt and maybe garlic, called "blitva". The people in dalmatian coast eat that together with fried fish. And not to forget - swiss chard is a very healthy vegetable, which can be harvested over months, until the first frost. Just pick the outer leafs, and the plant will regrow in no time, continuous harvest guaranteed.

Getting your first win on a harvest is definitely a big moment. Take it from me - I have a brown thumb and it took many years of dead tomato plants until I finally was successful. I figured out what killed them every year though, so my tomatoes lived a little longer the next year before I made another mistake and killed them. The thing that really sucks is that it's only planting time once a year, so if they die, you have to wait almost a year to try again. The silver lining to the yearlong wait is that it gave me enough courage to try it again, year after year. The moral of the story - like anything in life, don't quit! Learn from your mistakes! As of about 5 years ago I finally got really good at growing heirloom tomatoes, starting from seed and going all the way through the delicious final product. After that, I switched to learning about growing pumpkins and have killed countless pumpkin plants over the past 5 years. Fortunately, about half of what I learned from killing tomatoes applies to pumpkins, so I have progressed a lot faster with the pumpkins than I did with the tomatoes...

[@laustudie]

My first coriander/cillantro harvest was absolutely crazy. I seeded it late august and it did great during pretty much the entire winter. Lots of freezing and snow, but it just kept on growing and i kept cutting leaves off for cooking pretty much twice a week at some point. The last freezing period in february it finally collapsed and stopped growing. The years after that i had a lot of other plants grow well, but coriander never really did well after that first year. Seeded it a lot of times but they either never sprout or quickly die.

Beet greens are excellent in smoothies! I use a potato peeler and slice up 3 beets. I put them flat in a gallon Ziploc bag into the freezer pull out 4 slices to add to my strawberry and blueberry smoothies! I use the greens when the beets run out or add to a stir fry.

I live on a mountainside so I garden in pots. Love your vids! Always something new to learn. Thank you.

Sm garden so pots, an older gentin UK site home grown veg does v gd carrots n potatoes in pots.

Chop up some toasted almond nuts and it’ll bring your salad to the next level. You can also zest some citrus to it too.

Or toasted cashews, yummy.

Excellent presentation. I've been growing microgreens for a few years and you are spot on. I am now venturing into baby vegetables. Thanks.

[@webetruckin115]

This is literally the video/channel I’ve been looking for. I’m looking for veggies I can easily grow on my balcony in containers. Micro greens are the perfect solution! Thank you!

[@JamieNotLamie]

Thank you! I've really been enjoying being in my garden more and more, it's so peaceful, and rewarding. So I'm thinking of going beyond flowers and fairy gardens/bird sanctuarys and growing some greens! My 5 year old will appreciate knowing she can pluck some of them not long after we plant!

The salad looks really fresh & yumm!!! I love it when the gardeners harvest what they grow and cook as well. I find it very interesting & motivating to eat healthy. Great job!!!🙌💖

Young celery is amazing. I hated celery until I grew my own.

[@epicgardening]

Yeah cutting celery! So good

I just started preparing dishes using celery greens. Delicious!

Root crop greens are really easy and great to do. I planted freshly-cut carrot and parsnip heads with a little green still on them and have been harvesting the greens for some months now, and radish greens are great in a salad.

[@newatiny344]

Hi, I read a comment above which said that you should not eat parsnip greens because they're toxic...

U shud try spinach -good at every stage.A good salad: spinach,orange slices &walnuts with salt,pepper &olive oil

[@viviangood1406]

That sounds awesome. I'm picking some and make that salad.

[@rosaunolalintino]

I've been craving salad since yesterday and this certainly has not helped me lmao .

[@fiemy6888]

I love spinach with some good tomatoes, onions, and fresh mozzarella. Topped with olive oil/lemon juice/balsamic vinegar and salt & pepper. Or thrown on a pan with some mushrooms. Even instead of lettuce in burgers or sandwiches! I’m very very new to gardening, this is my first season, but I think I have to grow some!

[@Laswm4950]

That sounds soooooo gooood! LOL

[@victornuno7429]

Great video for growing a new vegetable home garden. Thank you for teaching us how to do it and what vegetables to select!

[@bookmagicroe9553]

Last summer I planted a small garden with things very close together. It rained a lot and my stuff was attacked by slugs. I put beer in small lids, the slugs climbed in and died. This summer I'll use more pots as well as the garden. I had to surround the garden with fencing and even a lid made of screen to keep the deer out.

Beet greens are delicious! I eat them straight from the garden, no cooking! They're great to nom on when watering the garden takes a while. They're also delicious mixed with spinach in stewed beets and greens. And beets and the beet tops are a great nutrition/iron boost substitute if you're craving meat.

[@newatiny344]

How do you make stewed beets and greens please?

[@draguta8995]

@@newatiny344 the way I make it: 1. Rinse the beets with cold water. 2. Slice them about a quarter-inch thick. Discard the 1/2 ro 1-inch thick portion where the stalks meet the root. 3. Put the sliced beets in a small pot. Add some salt, to taste (may take some experimentation, start with 1 tsp and alter from there). 4. Add enough water to cover the beet slices. (The beet juice water is delicious and nutritious, and too much water dilutes the flavor). 5.A. If the beets come with a lot of good beet greens, discard the wilted and bad ones, rinse and chop up the good leaves into 1- to 2-inch sized piecies and add them to the pot. 5. B. If the beets did not come with a lot of good leaves, or if you want to add more, rinse and add baby spinach. (I use about half a pound of spinach to 2 pounds beets). Its going to look like a lot of spinach, but it boils down. If you can't fit it all, fit as much as possible, then add more any time there's room. 6. Cover the pot with a lid. 7. Cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally. It usually takes about 45 minutes to cook. The water boils the beets and steams the greens until the greens can be stirred into the water. 8. Check water level when stirring. If there's less than about a quarter of an inch covering the bottom, add some more water. 9. It's done when the beets can be sliced with a fork and the greens are fully cooked (if they look wilted but have taken on some of the color of the beet juice). 10. Serve and enjoy! Enjoy!

The same idea about getting a "win" under the belt is why baseball is so fun to watch. The Astros had a decent set of home games a few weeks ago, and now they're on a ten game win streak. One win can readjust your whole attitude and make you unstoppable!

Planted in the shade the beet greens flourish, the bulb not. Just the reverse in full sunshine. I’ll take the beet greens por favor!

This is so practical, love it. While during this time we won’t run out of food, it’s always a good idea to limit going out and becoming more self sustaining. Not to mention, it helps save money long term.
