Get The Freshest of Fresh Produce With Vegetable Seeds
Growing your own produce can be an absolute delight. No matter how good your supermarket or fruit and veggie store, they just can't get vegetables to you fresh-picked from the plant. However, your garden can! All you need is the right environment, fertiliser, and some vegetable seeds to get started and you’ll find that on eBay.
Leafy greens vegetable seeds for easy salads
Lettuce, spinach, rocket, and other leafy green vegetables are popular choices for growing at home. They have the advantage of largely not needing to be fully picked. For example, if you need some lettuce for a salad, you could cut off an entire head of lettuce… or just carefully remove a few of the outer leaves and leave it to keep growing, perfectly fresh.
Beans for protein and vitamin A
Green beans are pretty easy to grow, provided you have a trellis for them to climb, and they tend to reward a little care with an abundance of produce. Many of these can be eaten raw, and while this might be distasteful with store-bought beans, generally just-picked green beans are quite sweet – even children will often enjoy chomping on a couple!
Tomatoes for sandwiches, salads, and sauce
The humble tomato is a versatile fruit – you can slice it for sandwiches, dice it for salads, or blend it into a paste for passata or bolognaise sauce. Many varieties are fairly simple to grow. Cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes are often a good pick for beginner tomato growers, as you don't need to wait as long for them to ripen and you typically have a larger initial yield.
Chilis for flavour
If you want to add a bit of a kick to your cooking, chilis will certainly fit the bill! Whether you prefer a mild pop of heat or a burning sensation that lasts for hours, there's a variety to suit. Keep in mind that it's a good idea to check the spiciness of a new chili before adding it to cooking, and if in doubt, leave the seeds out. Whatever you’re after, you’ll find it right here on eBay.
