The second month of summer is just around the corner and summer residents seem to have calmed down with planting. Most are busy with routine chores – watering, fertilizing, weeding.
Gardeners who only dream of peace continue to plant something almost all year round. That is why July is also a hot time for them in terms of sowing.
Experienced gardeners told us what you can plant or sow on your plots even in July.
Dill
If there is a demand for fresh greens, then dill can be sown almost every 3 weeks without any problems. The main thing is to soak the seeds beforehand and choose well-lit areas.
Watercress
Another fast-growing and useful crop. It is sown several times per season, and the harvest is collected within the same 2-3 weeks.
Spinach
It will take a little less than a month to get a harvest of spinach. It is also important to soak the seeds for a few hours before sowing.
A week for germination and another two weeks for harvesting.
Arugula
Before sowing, you need to add complex fertilizer, then seeds and abundant watering.
In a week, the microgreens will be ready for consumption. In a couple of weeks, you will be able to harvest large greens.
Basil
Basil has never bothered anyone, either during the preparation of winter supplies or in everyday cooking. Basil is used in the preparation of soups, salads and other dishes.
Plant basil in July to have fresh leaves for culinary use.
