What can do July month - Home Garden

 What to plant in July



July is an excellent month for sowing seeds as both soil and air temperatures are high. Long, warm days with good light levels speed up the germination process, helping you extend the growing season in your vegetable patch and increase your stock of perennials, biennials, and indoor exotics in the ornamental garden cutting patch. However, keep in mind that water levels are low at this time of year and additional watering may be necessary.


In the UK, many flower and vegetable seeds can be sown in July, including biennials such as foxgloves, which will flower the following spring. Fast-growing crops such as radishes, French beans, and carrots can be sown now.


July is a good month to plant young plants grown from seeds in previous months. This is the last month to plant young zucchini, squash, and sweetcorn – plant early in the month for the best chance of harvesting them before the first fall frosts. April and May are the best times to plant winter cabbages grown from seed so they are mature for Christmas and beyond.

Vegetables to Plant in July


Lettuce


Spinach and other salad leaves are a quick and easy crop – sow seeds regularly from March to September for the fresh salad for the better part of a year. Sow seeds in shallow drills or pots. For greens, harvest young leaves from thin seedlings to 30 cm and cuttings and re-emerging varieties.


Carrot


July is considered the last month to sow carrots for fall crops. Sow directly and thinly in shallow drills of well-prepared soil or in pots with soil-based compost. To prevent carrot flies, try to avoid thin seedlings.


Turnips



Often forgotten, turnips can give you two harvests from one plant - the tender sweet taproot can be eaten as leaves or 'greens'. Turnips do not store well, so eat immediately after harvest. For a tasty winter crop, sow directly in shallow drills.

Radish


Quick-maturing, easy to grow, and virtually pest-free, radishes add a burst of pepper to salads. Can also be grown as a companion plant to other crops.


Dwarf French Beans


As with carrots, July is the last month to plant French beans to allow the pods to mature before the first fall frost. Plant dwarf varieties in the ground or in pots and water wells.


Winter Cabbage



This is the best time to plant winter cabbages, so they have plenty of time to mature before temperatures drop in the fall. Plant 45cm apart, leaving 60cm between rows. Soften and water well. You may need to use netting to protect your cabbage from cabbage white caterpillars and pigeons.

Flowers should be planted in July


Delphiniums


July is the last month to plant these cottage garden vines for flowers next summer. Many single-flowered delphiniums are excellent bee plants.


Strelitzia



Want to plant something a little different? Strelitzias (bird of paradise) are vibrant perennials for greenhouses or houseplants and can be sown throughout the summer months. Spectacular flowers also make beautiful cut flowers.

Forget-me-not


Forget-me-not (Myosotis) can be sown from May to September, mimicking the natural process of seed dispersal and germination. Then sprinkle the seeds at intervals in flowerpots or seed trays for planting.


Pansies


By planting pansies now, you'll give them plenty of time to grow before planting in the fall, before they bloom. Sow early in the month for spring flowers.

7 Big Impact Dwarf Flowering Shrubs

Scale with dwarf flowering shrubs Big gardens have a season in life, and we have unlimited energy to maintain perennial gardens and a quarter-acre vegetable patch that produces enough food for the entire neighborhood. But if you have a balcony garden or small garden three floors up when you're starting out, you can still use dwarf shrubs to create a beautiful outdoor living space. Dwarf shrubs are perfect for small space gardens When thoughtfully designed, a small space garden can be as visually appealing and emotionally pleasing as a sprawling yard. No need to sacrifice your favorite shrubs like roses and lilacs. You need to choose the right size varieties to match the size of the space. A short hedge or even a casket of flowering shrubs may be just what you need to make your patio feel like "home." Dual purpose dwarf shrubs One key to making the most of any space—but especially a small one—is choosing plants with a dual purpose. Peach sorbet blueberries pro...

It's not a yellow ladybug - it's an invasive Asian lady beetle

Image
It's not a yellow ladybug They are similar, but one type helps control unwanted pests in the garden, while the other is a pest. Here's how to tell them apart. You usually want to see a ladybug in your garden, but the yellow ladybug doesn't look like one — it's an Asian beetle. Ladybugs are beneficial to your garden because they eat plant pests. However, many colored Asian beetles look like yellow ladybugs, but have turned out to be an insect. It is common to find large numbers of Asian lady beetles congregating in houses and other buildings in the fall. They can bite and emit an unpleasant odor when disturbed. Unfortunately, these invasive insects crowd out native ladybugs. If you can tell the difference between two pests, you can stop an annoying problem before it starts. Asian Lady Beetles vs Ladybugs You can identify a ladybug by its markings and size. There are many species, and most sport red shells and varying numbers of black spots. Their heads are b...

11 Succulents That'll Grow Without Bright Light

Image
 Low light Succulents  Even in a home with limited natural light, you can keep plants, including succulents. There are many low-light succulents that can grow without bright light. They may not thrive or grow as easily as partial or bright light, but they are available. Most succulents are drought tolerant, which means you don't need to water as often, so they're fairly easy to care for once you learn their needs. Can succulents grow in low light? Succulents can grow in low light, although they will not grow as well as in bright, indirect light. They cannot grow in complete darkness, so try to find at least a partially shaded spot. They may start to grow a little leggy as they seek sun, but you can prune and propagate to adjust their appearance. 1. Desert rose The thick, fleshy leaves of this succulent retain water, so you don't need to water as often. The desert rose gets its name from its habitat and its resemblance to a rose. 2.
