Seasonal tips
- Succession sow bush beans every two weeks for a continuous harvest throughout the summer heat.
- Mulch around newly transplanted squash and pumpkins to retain moisture and suppress weeds as temperatures rise.
- Pinch back the tops of basil plants regularly to encourage bushier growth and prevent flowering.
Keep watch
Pest & disease watch
- Watch for aphids clustering on tender new growth of nasturtiums and scarlet runner beans.
- Inspect cucumber leaves closely for signs of squash vine borer or early aphid activity.
- Monitor okra plants for budworms that can damage developing pods if left unchecked.
Water
Watering this week
Water deeply in the early morning to help plants withstand afternoon heat while minimizing evaporation losses.
One more thing
Harvest watermelon and cantaloupe regularly to signal the plant to continue producing fruit rather than stopping growth.
