BEETS!
two varities we grew companion planted with snap peas & bush beans. Some chioggia guardsmark beets and some early wonder tall top beets. I left more than half in the bed to let them get even bigger. Yum!
*Lesson from the companion planting.... I think I went a little too intensive with this approach- which was every other row alternating the snap peas & beets (one half), bush beans & beets (the other half). It made it more of a hide & seek game, which had its fun parts. But planting with the sugar snap peas (a variety that doesn't technically need a trellis), made for a tangly mess, with the peas oppressing the beets some. Oh well, they still both seemed to thrive despite my inconvenience.
Hurray!
