The heat is on in Texas. I hope this summer goes by as quickly as the fall, winter and spring did. What are you planning for the fall?

Yesterday was the saddest day of my life, I started. Prepping for anything that might come our way . We just moved to South Texas from West Texas n I put all our canning and all our food in a climate controlled storage and yesterday I was robbed and they took over 10,000$ worth of food and the cameras were not even working when we were told it was a security storage and the deadbolts did not even work either so sad ! I had soo much canning that I learned to do from alot of y’all on here and I started in 2019 what a waste I’m so depressed! I don’t know if I have the strength to start over pray for my husband and I we really need it thank you !

It's AWFUL. Stay cool! EDIT: I planted a bunch of sunflowers. I am growing cucumbers under them. They are doing fine. My peppers, most of them, are kickin it hard. Peppers for days!!!

I definitely want to plant a Fall garden. It’s dry and hot here too in West Central Georgia. We are on a bored well and are being conservative with water. I’m catching rinse water in the sink and pouring in buckets on the porch. Any water bottles not finished, even ice in glasses are being poured in the bucket. It did rain Monday morning off and on for about 45 minutes. I put plastic totes under over hangs of the house. I filled up five 5-gallon buckets by putting a bowl under gutter down spout and catching water and pouring straight into buckets ( down spout is low to ground). I ended up catching 21 gallons and watered right at roots. Then I’m watering after sunset ( I know that’s not ideal) but it does help with evaporation. Shade cloths, large patio umbrellas in the afternoon. Anything to help. We are praying and hoping for rain soon 🙏🏻 “Tip”- Cherry tomatoes are doing fabulous! I am picking twice a day and freezing. They will cook just as well as larger tomatoes and will can and freeze the cooked tomatoes soon 🤗 Already have 3 gallons of cherry tomatoes 🍅NOTE-My rinse water I catch is from just rinsing my hands with NO soap, or rinsing off vegetables. The goal here is to have just plain water ( a little dirt is not a problem ☺️)

It's the same here in south Alabama, very dry and very hot and humid. I'm watering my garden every day but it's still suffering from the heat. We hit 100 today with 90% humidity so I know the tomatoes won't be setting more fruit. I'm taking the half ripe tomatoes off the plants and letting them ripen on the porch rail. With the birds and critters needing water they will ruin the fruit if I leave it to fully ripen on the vines. We haven't had any measurable rain in weeks but I'm praying and believing God for a good soaking rain. Be careful in this heat, I was outside watering until 8 pm and I was drenching wet with sweat when I finished. I felt like turning the hose on myself lol.

Seems Idaho won't be harvesting potatoes so I took it upon myself to bury some for next year. My tomatoes are small and green. I do have squash which are pretty big, but not getting my cukes to get past the flower stages. I have 2 palm sized bell peppers but the rest are pebbles. They said we would be getting rain, but haven't seen any yet. My other plants are panting for more water, but I can't give them any just yet.

My tomatoes have done fantastic this year, but are slowing down now. Most are in mostly shaded areas and are not burnt to a crisp yet but the ones in the sun I pulled up over the weekend because they were fried. I did find recipes that use green tomatoes though so nothing is going to waste. My cucumbers are also still doing good. I have two little bumblebees that I see every morning on them. 😊 My herbs are doing well too. The only thing that was a bust so far was the squash. Stay cool. This heat is brutal.

What was I thinking planting so many of these dang plants!!???!!!

We have a few things holding on in containers,but they are in shade most of the day.Our squash all but failed. there are two small acorn squash trying to grow. The only thing in the ground at this time are some cow peas.I ran some soaker hoses on them being we only have about a hundred and fifty foot row worth,and they can take this heat .Most of the foundation of our home is now landscaped in rock three feet out ,but the barn is not and is exposed to a large pasture.Also we live in heavily wooded area here in Upshur County and prone to wild fire as well. Thankfully we have had plenty of rain this year so far,but things dry out fast. The DOT should be sending the tractors soon to mow the ditches on our F.M. before the 4th. Mid August me and The Mrs. are going to Colorado to camp in the mountains for a couple of weeks and visit our youngest son.Hopefully it will be a little cooler when we get back home.

Former East Texan now in SO Colorado....I have tomatoes on the vines that have been there since the end of May and they are not ripening. My major issue this year is grasshoppers. They have totally destroyed my onions and working on my bell peppers. Also I have never had such an infestation of tomato hornworms, dealing with those daily. I am having to self pollinate my squash and zucchini and they are producing. Thankful I don't have to deal with the humidity but this dry heat can be just as bad (102 today). We have had very little rain and a neighbor told me I would not be able to grow a thing.......Ha! things are growing but struggling because of the pests and no rain.

Ripening was a problem for me. Humidity is always so bad with the 105 heat index. No breeze here. We don’t get breezes often. It’s 12:30 am and I’m sweating outside from this sauna. Can I do it all again, since most of my plants are now playing out? It’s a lot, a lot to do single handed. I may try only because I’m hard headed🤣. My melons tendrils have dried up too early so I don’t know that these small melons will even be ripe. No greenhouse and everything is full sun early morning until about 7:30pm. Too much is changing. Will be hotter every year. We go from last minute frost to 85 here. No spring anymore. Adjustments will be needed for future planting.

If I have an open section of garden when I'm pulling out stuff, I'm putting in okra as it doesn't seem to mind the heat as much as the rest of our stuff.

I am planning my fall garden. My Opalka tomatoes are struggling. I have cut them back a bit and waiting on the tomatoes to finish ripening. Plan to pull them out or cut them back even more. Blackeyed peas have aphids. So planted a second round and will treat for the aphids and ants. I have a volunteer cantaloupe that is to doing well and waiting for the melons to ripen. Peppers are doing okay. Sowed some okra. Not much in the garden and will begin again late July or early August for the fall garden. I generally pack out the garden and go all the way through the summer and into fall. This year, planned it more like you had stated last year as 2 seasons spring and fall garden, so that I would not have to fight the heat during July. I know it will be hot in August but a month off for rest with minimal garden chores, sounded like a good plan. When the "fall" garden is ready to harvest, I am hoping it will be a bit cooler.

NONE of the others did anything. Vine squash would get about 3 inches around and stop. I don't know what's going on. ALL of my plants were incredible this year. Just no fruits...No bees either.
