30 Fruits And Vegetables For High Yield - Page 2 of 3

#11 Good King Henry Or Fat Hen, Or Similar

All belong to this plant can eat. The leaves can be used fresh in salads or cooked (like spinach, they have a cabbage-like taste). The seeds are edible (like quinoa). The flowers are edible and always make a salad look better.

#12 Chickweed

Chickweed loves cool weather. It thrives between 53° and 68°F. Chickweed is not only a super plant in terms of its nutritional acclaim, but it’s also delicious. The flavor is often compared with corn silk. It’s pleasant and mild. Chickweed is excellent raw–use it like sprouts; eat it in sandwiches, wraps, etc. And of course, it’s a great base for a salad. It’s also great cooked and makes a good substitute for spinach.

#13 Potatoes

Although potatoes take a rather large area to plant but relatively little effort to grow. So, the weight and quality of the harvest can definitely make potatoes worthwhile growing in your garden.

#14 Beets

You can grow quite a lot of them in relatively small spaces, especially if you eat baby beets as you thin out your young plants. This gives a higher yield and also gives the other plants still in the ground the chance to grow much larger over time.

#15 Carrots

Carrots can offer high yields. Like beets, they can also be grown in relatively small spaces, or even in containers. They can help you make the most of every inch of your garden.

#16 Turnips

Turnips are another root crop that can offer rather high yields. And like beets and carrots, these can also be grown over a long period – perhaps even over the winter months with some protection. And Their leafy greens are great secondary yield.

#17 Radishes

Radishes are great for companion planting, intercropping, and making the most of small spaces. They grow very quickly and so can be sown and grown successionally throughout the year for a higher overall harvest than you might imagine.

#18 Lettuce

Lettuce is another very fast-growing crop that takes up very little space and can potentially offer a high yield little and often over a long period.

#19 Pak Choi

Leafy greens like lettuce obviously won’t offer a high yield in terms of calories or weight. But they can offer a nutrient-rich yield over a long period of time. They can be grown quickly, with little land, and with minimal effort on your part.
