We cultivate and harvest tomatoes
Tall tomatoes require intensive care. You have to remove unnecessary side shoots.At the end of the month, we limit their growth by pinching the growth cone above the last flowering bud and leaving 2 leaves above it.At the end of the month, the harvest of tomatoes and peppers that have been planted also beginsin the ground without covers.
Pick fully colored fruit for direct consumption. For short storage, we collect the so-called the fruit is lit. Their early harvest accelerates the maturation of the remaining fruits on the plant.
Legume harvest
The harvest of late green peas ends in July.We harvest broad beans throughout the month, and in the second half of the month we start harvesting the earliest string beans.Harvest several times, as the pods mature.
Collection of cucumbers
We start harvesting cucumbers in July. We collect them many times as they grow to the right size.When harvesting, remember not to translate the shoots, because then you can easily damage the adventitious roots growing out of the leaf axils.During the harvest, remove all overgrown, damaged and diseased fruits.
We are still sowing
We can still sow many kinds of vegetables for later harvest or for storage. At the beginning of the month, we sow green beans, early varieties of carrots, some varieties of red beet, such as 'Round Dark Red' and 'Red Ball'.
On the seedbed we sow lettuces: butter and crispy and cauliflower.In the middle of the month we sow Chinese cabbage, red beets to preserve the roots, and at the end of the month we sow radishes and spinach.
