July Gardening Calendar
Wondering What You Should Be Doing In Your Garden?
Below is a calendar of key things you can be doing in your garden during the month of July.
Approximate Timing & July Gardening Activities:
Early July
- If it’s not too hot, you can fertilizer for summer blooms.
- July 4 – Check out these fun recipes for your forth of July holiday. Garden Recipes for A Great Fourth of July, and Red, White & Blueberry: Patriotic Recipes from the Garden.
- Double check that all irrigation is working properly. Earwigs like to hide in emitters and 1/4" tubing to keep cool and for moisture.
Mid-July
- Check your watering schedule. Timing is important – Plants like deep soaks less often. And be sure to water in the early morning to conserve water.
Late July
- With warmer weather we are seeing more Thrips on roses – use Captain Jack’s Deadbug Brew.
- Start checking for fruit and don't let your zucchini fruit get too big before picking, 6 to 8" is good.
- Dead head any spent flowers to keep the blooms coming.
