I would add to #'s 1&2. In addition to cukes and zukes, I'd also add pie pumpkins, which you should be able to harvest in time for Thanksgiving and/or Christmas, as well as large winter squash of choice. I'm a big fan of the PBS aka pink banana squash and I like Hubbard varieties. I have an experimental honeynut squash growing now... seeds harvested from store-bought veg. (We'll see how that works out.) #4: Is it too late to plant some super-hots? I really want to try growing Summer sweet-potatoes, in time for the holidays, too. Would that go along with #6?

[@gregchappell6462]

Hey Millennial Gardener! I’m so glad I found your channel! Your videos are so helpful! I’m literally a Newbie Gardner (3 weeks) & I’m in a similar Zone (7b) - Baltimore, MD. I am already starting my pepper harvest (poblanos & jalapeños), sweet potatoes, & basic staple herbs. Planning on doing squash & garlic in a few weeks. However, I am very interested in a lemon & lime trees and I have been watching your citrus fruit tree videos and I can get established trees of both from Lowe’s in containers. My question is should I keep them in their containers or transplant them in ground? I really enjoyed your video re: lemon trees from grafted tree or a root cutting, so I’m curious about that technique as well. If you could, let me know your thoughts, pros & cons to each, or if it warrants a whole new video, that’d be even better!

[@__GALLANT__]

Good job young farmer!

[@feetsoap4266]

@@OhPervyOne Summer sweet potatoes are a great idea for mid-July growing. Remember they like hot sandy soil. And sand gets mighty hot under the sun. I'm about to get me some cheap top soil, which tends to be sandy and a few bags of all-purpose sand and mix them to grow slips. I may even grow a potato buried under an inch of my mixture, to see how that turn out.

Last year my zukes and cukes were positively decimated by beetles and squash bugs. 😩 I was scared if I replanted that their young would just wipe them out as well. Good luck to you!

[@karenwestby-gibson758]

Plant them in different area of your garden each season. Never plant zucchini or squash in the same area.

[@andoniades]

That sounded more like bad news. Hope you have success when you try again.

[@TheMillennialGardener]

I grow 3-4 crops of zucchini each summer. My 2nd planting is beginning to flower. I recommend leaving your old dying plants in the ground, because they attract the beetles, squash bugs, stink bugs, etc. away from the new plants. They'd rather attack the dying vines.

[@VaultDwellerGal]

Fantastic video!!! Texan here, and you’re darn right. We over-summer instead of over-winter 😂 Even as I’m typing this, it’s 7pm and the temp is “feels like 107”.

[@alblfty.rt.minded2679]

Nor-East Texan here myself! He is absolutely spot-on about the climate and this year has been especially weather-wild: nasty thunderstorms, very wet and very humid considering it's July. My poor garden is confused and it's showing. Because these last few storms dessimated a lot of my crops I am having to re-plant. This time around we'll be using felt containers rather than in-ground for better management.

[@slowmotion-songs]

I just planted some tomato seedlings I got from Menards that were $0.75 for six. For that price, I figured it was worth a try. It’s been so dry up here in Wisconsin, we’ve been struggling to get anything to grow decent. I think it has rained maybe three times since spring. Thanks for the encouraging info and good luck to everyone!

[@smas3256]

Thank you. Do research on saving seeds. It is much easier than I thought. I'll be saving Roma seeds, God willing. Already collected some pea pods that were dry on the pea plants. I had good luck with purple basil seeds I saved and Bell Peppers last fall. It is exciting. In my mid 70's. Good luck to you as well. BTW. Weather here in central Ct is crazy like yours. We have a rain barrow connected to a downspout from our roof gutter. 1/2 of rain fills it. If our garden was larger we'd have rain barrows on all down spouts from the roof.

[@tompatchak8706]

I’m in Chicago, same problem. No rain. Ima try to plant peas and green beans

[@TheMillennialGardener]

I'd like to trade you. We've only had 4 dry days since the last 3 weeks. I've logged over 38 inches of rain for the year and the thunderstorm season has really only just begun. We still have the wettest 8 weeks of the year ahead of us.

Cucumber ad zucchini are best planted after the 4th of July. The pests that are most problematic have completed their life cycle. #winwin

I’m on the border in Red Wing, it’s so dry! I’m out of town but heard it rained recently 😊

[@randyadams7269]

Great advice today as usual. I’m in Cave Creek Az and picked my first fig of the season, I believe it to be a mission. Was a gift and my friend didn’t know what kind it is. It fills the palm of my hand. Dale looks great and rested. It is approaching 120 degrees here and I have taught my Rottweiler to use the treadmill. He walks and jogs we vary the exercise. Even 5 minutes settles him down and relaxes him. Thanks for your help with the garden. Even with shade cloth and mulch it’s harsh out there. One point I have not heard you mention is with the quality of water. Our city water is extremely hard and seems to be getting worse. We catch water when it rains but it is infrequent. Thank you again. Regards Randy

[@smas3256]

I'm picturing a Rottweiler using a treadmill. Too funny. Thanks. We invested in a rain barrow. If I was you I'd have a lot more than one. The downspout from our rain gutter directs the water into the barrow. It takes 1/2 inch of rain to fill the barrow. We have city water too. They lie about water shortages. Deep wells artesian wells. Primary water is under the ground all over the earth. Even in deserts.

[@TheMillennialGardener]

There are a lot of "Mission-type" figs. It could be any one of dozens of varieties, but ultimately it doesn't matter as long as you like it. Dale has a lot of "nervous energy." If he doesn't get it out, he is very restless, anxious and becomes obsessive. This time of year is tough on us all. This time of year, it rains so much that I don't have to water the regular garden, only my container garden. Having rain barrels is very helpful.

[@spicencens7725]

Great advice for fall planting! I've recently thought of fall plantings of zukes & others, because my summer ones didn't do well...I don't get out there as much as I should! I'm in the Piedmont area from AZ, and man, this heat is killing me...along with the bugs biting constantly! Ugh!

The summer heat here is really rough, but if you can push through it, you're rewarded with fall gardening. Fall is the best season to garden in the South, in my opinion, so it's a great investment.

[@jeepgurl1980]

Great video! Just put in more cucumbers and beets. I didn't know you could get starts off of tomatoes like that...thanks for the info!

[@MikeOfNotts]

My hot tip is to use reflectors. Curved mirrors to redirect the light to concentrated areas. Window sills can be made bright enough to grow things all year round by taking the light on winter ground that isn't growing anything at that time and shining it somewhere where thing can grow. Make dish mirrors if you can but it is easier to create single curve mirrors. I'm making them out of cardboard wire industrial kitchen foil wood and wire to give the corrugated cardboard shape, mastic sealer and glue. It's the materials that I have got. If you have better materials then youse them instead. If you are using cardboard then make sure the foil is fully sealed against the rain around it and they are fully secured at all four corners to a couple of wooden polls.

[@bon3y4rd]

This isn't related to this video but I would like to see a video on caring for raised bed soil prior to the next planting season. Tilling? Reusing raised bed soil, renewing, etc. If you have already done that please forgive me.

Excellent content!! I hv started my cucumbers and squash. My potatoes are waiting to be planted. FYI///Over winter your pepper plants in buckets or large pots. Two year old pepper plants are much more productive. Just trim them back to 1/3 of original size removing most all of the leaves and over winter them in your basement. Water once a month to keep them from drying out. Start paying more attention to them in feb/march as they begin to produce leaves. Water and provide more light till they can be taken back outside. #winwin

I never thought to plant potatoes in July. I love the Ruth Stout method, so much easier!

[@TheMillennialGardener]

Potatoes simply love fall weather. You can grow them til frost. When the frost kills the plants, dig up the taters.

My dill has all gone to seed, so I'm hoping I can get one more harvest before the winter. I'm definitely going to do another round of potatoes!

We've had a crazy season with fluctuating temps and a lot of hail. The hail damage is everywhere.

Great video as always. My seeds for fall just came in and roots have formed on my tomato cuttings.

Omg I planted cucumbers about a month and a half ago. My plants are huge and lots of cucumbers IT’s middle of July now and they aren’t dying out. My peppers I planted in May and they are thriving lots of green and red peppers nothing of mine is dying back. We are getting temps in the 100’s I have used UV covers but took them off because my vegetables are huge . My watermelon are huge so are my pumpkin. I live in eastern Washington

I normally plant by mid may but this year we started first of July. So we planted young plants of tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and zucchini and okra so ours will hopefully do well . We have had a lot of rain in the southeast TN.

We had over 100 zucchini and cucumbers. We don't need anymore!
