The vegetable Beets are the best growing seed but you don’t want to mess up the root once it begins to grow. Even though beets can grow in summer they have a sour and tender smell but they can get soggy quickly so the best choice is to grow them at the end of summer. Beets take a couple of weeks to freeze but Bok choy can grow as fast as 40 days and it can harvest the head in the springtime.

You can plant vegetable lettuce anytime in the season. It takes 50 days for them to grow but for some of them, it might take a while. However, it can grow slowly in the spring due to the weather and shorter days. Lettuce has shallow roots. 

Peas will take 50 days to grow.

Peas can or will be ready to harvest within 50 to 60 days. Plant them in mid-late August and the peas will generate more in warm weather but they will also need more water and protection from the hot shining sun while they are young and still growing.
