In this video, I share 7 veggies you can still plant in late July right now! July is winding down and temperatures will slowly cool, and that means seed starting season ramps back up! Late July gives us the flexibility to sow seeds for our summer garden and our fall garden, and sowing seeds now will reward us with big harvests during the pleasant fall gardening season!

MERRY CHRISTMAS
I love fall crops! Just a caveat that late summer sown crops will take longer to mature than what is on the seed pack because of the shorter days after the solstice. Not a big deal if you are in a southern location but something to consider.
I’m in north central Alabama. It is time to start shifting to a fall garden in my area. I have potatoes and Brunswick Cabbage that have sprouted, and I am waiting on Danvers Carrots to sprout. Tomorrow I will sow seeds for golden beets. I have turnip seeds on order; as soon as they arrive, I will sow them too.
The last of my zucchini plants has laid flat, and is ready to remove. The beds I use for planting summer squash will be used for sowing seeds for cauliflower and broccoli in about two weeks. I have three tomato plants with ripening fruit. As soon as they are done, I will dig out the raised beds and move them to a new location that will give them more sunlight in the fall and winter, and shade in late spring and summer.
After moving the raised beds, I will sow seeds for parsnips and another batch of beets. In September, I’ll sow seeds for Pak Choi, Yellow Heart Winter Choy, Tatsoi, and radishes. October is garlic month, and then the cycle begins anew in January. It never ends for me, snow or no snow.
Your videos are always helpful! Glad for the reminder that we can still plant some things for late summer and fall harvest!
Do you know much about Quince trees? I live in the frozen zone 4a but I love quince paste that I order from spain and read that there are some fruiting quince that are 4a tolerant
Can you include info about what you grew Etc in your garden when you lived in Nj ?
I finally got my hands on some Beit Alpha cucumber seeds! It's been a very late season up here in Washington State, so as soon as I pull my peas, I'll be giving those a try. Can't wait!
Great tips. Now get some tissue for Dale! 👃🏽
I may have made a mistake, but Most of the trees I have were here or grown from seed. I will be finding their ground soon, but, when you have a wonderful fruit, why not keep it going? Lemon, Peach, Plumb… I did have a few others pop up, oak & liquid ember, maybe maple too. still not sure about that leaf… now, I may work 12 or 13 hours a day, but I will water before & after work if needed. Often, watering by flashlight, & even now, I worry about some plants, they are light & we have wind. Had to upright 6 today… PPL have asked me about dogs v.s. Cats… & I answer, on those cold, rainy days, would you rather take you Dog for a walk, or clean the cat box inside your home? I am more of a cat person 🙂 But, I still like dogs. . .
Thank you for your vids, more to think about 🙂
Shout out for your suggestion to get bare root strawberries from your Amazon affiliate link. After wasting my money on 50% off Lowes stock (which was DOA), I went through your store link and got 14 extremely healthy looking plants! (I ordered 10, so ended up with almost 50% extra! ) Thanks again!
Great motivation video and very informative and encouraging
I GET A LOT OF INQUIRING COMMENTS ON YOUR 4X ORANGE SHIRT
It's monsoon season here in Arizona. What nutrient(s) does the rain wash away in the soil (if any) and what should I be feeding my plants following a heavy rain?
Love great your video
WOW, thanks for this information. I didn’t know that about leeks.
Thanks for info.
Do a video on seed starting your fall stuff, like kale, brassica, etc. 👍
We live in SE Texas. Both of my great grandmothers always said to plant trees in months that end in “er”
Very good video.
I live in SE Oklahoma zone 7.
I decided to do an experiment.
I planted potatoes in a shady area June 1.
So in September I shall see.
Why are we seeing political ads on your channel?
I needed this motivation after experiencing a few garden fails this summer. I’ve been staring at the holes in my garden wondering what I can do with the empty space while I’m waiting to put out my fall brassicas. After watching this video I headed out to Home Depot and picked up a pack of Dixie Hybrid summer squash (41 days) and Bushy cucumber (45 days). Thank you MG for the inspiration!
I overwintered globo onions from baker creek a couple of years ago from a fall planting. One got up to 2lbs the following spring! I grew a baby last winter so I didn’t get any this spring😆 I just got mine started indoors this week too. Hoping for another 2lber.
Superbe vidéo 😊
Love all of your videos! I'm located in Greenville, NC. Would you recommend a grow bag to transplant for all of the 7 veggies you mentioned in this video? Thank you!
How deep is your soil in your beds. Thanks
I just wanted to say that because I have been watching your videos has helped me get back into gardening and I’m feeling better both physically and mentally again. Thank you for your support of putting these videos on YouTube! Plus it helps with my PTSD.
Off topic alittle bit, I have limited patio space to grow my veges and fruits all in containers. My bounty was very good this year. I live in Central Alabama I want to try an grow a fig tree. In your opinion was is a couple of best tadting figs that I can grow in container? Your videos in gardening have helped me alot. Thanks
Great video. I appreciate you always speaking of succession planting. That has been a game changer for me this year, having continuous harvests. Dale is so happy having his own post in the garden❤
I've learned so much from your videos. Thank you for educating us. I have a cucumber question. As you suggested I got Beit Alpha cuce seeds this year. Although the seed packet says all female flowers, after I planted them in May all I got was male flowers. After two and a half months I am just now getting a few cuces. Still mostly male flowers. What do you think happened? My crop will be severely reduced because of all the time that has passed. Also the plants are starting to look a little tired. I have used your fertilizer suggestions too. Too late this year for a good crop??
I just started new seeds tonight, I am in zone 8a ☺️.
I'm taking you advise tomorrow in the wet garden. Next week all week it'll be in the 90's. Planting the fall garden here in N.C. Thank you..
Its always good to see if you can push the limits. Im going to see how far i can push my kale into Winter this year 👍🏼😃
