Let’s look at the most productive ugly vegetable you can grow! The taste is delicious though with a sweet, nutty, creamy flavour when cooked! Super easy to grow in zones 3-9🌿 Recipe for roasting: Wash and cut into large chunks, drizzle with olive oil, smoked salt, and thyme, mix thoroughly then roast 180°C fan for 40-45min, turning twice.

What’s the most ugly but productive vegetable the artichoke not that one though it’s the Jerusalem artichoke although it’s not from Jerusalem and it certainly isn’t an artichoke perhaps its other common names Earth apple sunroot and sunchoke are more appropriate sunchokes originating from North America are related to another popular garden
Plant the sunflower their small flowers bear a similar resemblance as well as their fast and upright growth Habit in fact I often grow sunchokes for their incredible visual aesthetic you could certainly class them as impact plant in a kitchen Garden sunchokes are very Hardy you can easily grow them in zones
3 to9 they’re also very productive I averag around 15 kilos per square meter in the self-sufficiency garden they are not suitable for extinction Rebellion activists though due to their gasy side effect causing methane emissions but your gut does build tolerance quickly sunchokes can be fermented to further
Improve digestion but my favorite way to enjoy them is roasted sunchokes are considered by many as an excellent survival crop

Are you telling us you're not an Extinction rebellion activist? I've joined a few of their protest, but your comment made me chuckle anyway. I gave up on sunchokes becaue of the digestive effect… do you think I should try again? (and again?) I think they're pretty and grow like weeds, so would be nice…
Started some a few months ago in pots after watching your video and seeing them for the first time, can't wait to harvest them and see if their side effect are as bad as people claim.
I had no idea they were from North America. I’ve never seen them here, nor even heard of them until a few years ago.
I got rid of them afrer 3 years. Powdery mildew loved them. I had them in the middle of my yard and it looked horrible year after year as the leaves dried up.
I just planted some last year. I haven’t dug any up yet but even with no care they all sent up a flower 🌻
Maybe they are ugly, but so delicious 😅
Interesting, as in French and Dutch the term Earth Apple is Pomne de Terre or Aardappel and is a potato!
Make the tastiest soup I've ever had, Bostin!! 👌
I've heard them referred to as "fartichokes" too.
Ugly butt productive??
Why dont we all just grow up and stop putting things in there…
My mom gave me some a couple years ago. They grow but the deer eat them up before they get very big
❤❤❤❤❤❤ok
Chào bạn❤❤❤❤❤
I herd some people cant eat them because it will mess up their tummy so they feed it to pigs and eat the pigs😂
Just what i need in my vegetarian diet, more gas 😂
In Russia we garden them for flowers and eat them fresh, especially in spring, when there isn't much to eat from your garden. I never tried them baked, need to try!
What was the extinction rebellion reference about? lol
What else do you herd besides some people? 🤔🤣
Garbage.
i never eat vegetables. I eat meat, dairy and some fruits.
As a survival crop, they're a failure. Their carbohydrates are indigestible to us, therefore they have virtually no calories to sustain life.
