8 Plants You Should Always Grow Next to Beets for a Fresh, Flavorful Harvest part 2 (6_8 plants 🪴) 5.Scallions are another crop to consider. "[They] have roots that don't get very big, and you have those big, nice, linear leaves," says Irish-Hanson. "You can interplant those together." Green onions are fairly vertical plants and don't have much spread to them, so you'll have more space for your beets to settle in. There's also some research that suggests scallions can deter pests from some crops. Zones: 6 to 9 Size: 8 to 12 inches tall x .5 inches wide Care requirements: Full sun; well-draining, fertile soils; medium watering 6. Some flowering plants, like alyssum, can attract predator insects. While that may sound scary, it can be beneficial for beets. "There's not much hard science to back this, but bees and predatory wasps can destroy the larvae of a whole bunch of different pests," says Irish-Hanson. Lady beetles and lacewings, which also eat pests, are attracted to alyssum too. Alyssum is also low-growing and can be easily trimmed back, so you can plant beets nearby without having to worry about their leaves competing for light. Zones: 9 to 11 year-round, will reseed itself liberally Size: 3 to 9 inches tall x 20 inches wide Care requirements: Full sun; well-draining, fertile soils 7. In containers, beets and nasturtiums can be planted next to each other. "[Trailing] nasturtiums shade the top of the soil," says Irish-Hanson. This shade may help keep the soil moist for longer, reducing the chance of the container drying out too quickly. Zones: 9 to 11 Size: 12 inches tall x 24 inches wide Care requirements: Full sun; sandy, well-draining, fertile soils; keep moist 8.Clover is an easy-to-grow ground cover and weed suppressor that pairs well with beets. "I let Dutch white clover go all over my yard because it's fixing nitrogen, and I have really sandy soils—so it creeps next to my beets," says Irish-Hanson. This nitrogen-fixing quality may help the beets take up more nutrients. Just be mindful that when you go to harvest the beets, you may be pulling up some of the clover, as it tends to get tangled in the beet stems. Zones: 3 to 10, depending on species Size: 3 to 6 inches tall x 12 to 24 inches wide Care requirements: Full sun; sandy, well-draining, moist soils https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hak-paul1_gofarm-activity-7337561179638185985-zwQZ?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_android&rcm=ACoAACvHkQwB-mWI8MI62udfhp1yYZnzyEHE2SU

5 easy vegetables to grow in pots in June You don’t need a large garden to grow your own vegetables. Although having a dedicated vegetable patch is ideal and will give you ample room to grow a whole range of crops, it’s still possible to harvest tasty vegetables grown in pots. So, whether you have a balcony garden, a small patio, or a decking area, you can still enjoy the experience and the end result of growing an edible garden, regardless of the size of your outdoor space. And, even if you do have a larger plot, there’s no reason why you can’t add a few vegetable pots to your patio. The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) states that although vegetables can be grown all year round, the most popular time is between April and October. And while the first few months have passed, there’s still time to get planting. Even if you’ve already got a crop of vegetables growing in your yard, you can still plant these 5 easy vegetables in pots in June 1. raddish: If you fancy something hot and fiery to add to your summer salads, radishes are the perfect vegetable to grow. And apart from adding some heat, they’ll add a touch of bright red too. Calum Maddock, gardening expert at HomeHow says, “Salad radishes are quick and easy to grow from seed and can be grown in even the smallest of spaces. Thanks to their short roots, they are one of the best vegetables to grow in pots and will not need overly large containers to flourish. 2. spring union Spring onions, also known as scallions, are another easy-to-grow vegetable that can be added to summer salads, stir-fries, and a whole host of other dishes. 3.kale One vegetable I’ve been eating more of recently is kale, and I’m not the only one enjoying this green-leafed veggie. In recent years it’s achieved superfood status. “It’s tasty, nutritious, and easy to grow,” says Maddock, “Kale is a member of the cabbage family and works wonderfully both as mini salad leaves and tasty greens for cooking or adding to smoothies.” 4. zucchini Zucchini is one of my favorite vegetables to grow in my backyard, as I enjoy adding it to all sorts of dishes, like risotto & bread. Additionally, it’s a prolific crop, and I’ve only ever needed to grow two plants to achieve a bumper crop. If you don’t leave it too late in June, there’s still time to plant zucchini seeds, place the seeds one inch deep and position the pot in plenty of sun, keeping the soil moist. Alternatively, zucchini plants can be potted straight into your container 5. beetroot I grew up watching my grandma cooking up fresh beets pulled straight from the soil. But despite seeing the growing process from seed to plate, I never quite appreciated the taste of beets. A few decades on, it’s now one of my favorite vegetables to add to a summer salad. Apart from cooking this colorful vegetable, beets can be eaten raw, pickled, and even roasted. It’s a versatile vegetable that also adds a burst of color to a plate. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hak-paul1_5-easy-vegetables-to-grow-in-pots-in-june-activity-7337703748011528192-qfY_?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_android&rcm=ACoAACvHkQwB-mWI8MI62udfhp1yYZnzyEHE2SU https://x.com/hakpaul1/status/1931939819921215979?s=19
