THINGS TO PLANT IN JULY FOR ZONE 5 | Growing food in small spaces

If you’re wondering what to plant in July zone 5b don’t fret! JULY IS NOT TOO LATE!!!!
It makes me sad when I see people only planting in the spring and missing out on increasing their harvest by continuing to plant in the summer. There are both cold sensitive and frost hardy plants you can add to your Zone 5 garden in July to extend your harvest into fall and even winter for some plants!

Dehydrated kale cabbage be used in smoothies and so can Swiss Chard!

[@DeidraLewandowski]

Hey there - thanks for this info - I have not started my basil, have 3 or 4 varieties so glad to know it is not too late.

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Awesome! What types of basil are you planning to start? I have some cardinal basil to still get started!

[@naurekk]

This is awesome, found this video before it's too late (I usually forget to think about the fall harvests when it is so hot out). Nice to find Canadian information from my area!

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Yay! It’s so easy to blink and it’s fall already! What are you planning to plant for the fall?

[@laurelg3581]

So happy to have found you. I am in zone 5a. This couldn't be more timely. This weekend I am going to get started on the Fall garden.

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Amazing! Welcome and glad you found the video helpful! Fall gardens are EPIC!

[@BrendanTripp]

Just started gardening in Chicago (zone 6a/5b) and it's always helpful to find info to these zones ... I guess not everywhere goes 100+F in the summer and -20F in the winter!

[@KristinM2288]

Zinnias and cosmos are my favorite flowers! Oh, and moss roses!

[@The_IndoorGardener]

I’m in love with the picotee cosmos and the whole queen lime zinnia group

[@Saoirse.n.Murphy]

Hello, and thank you! We are in 5B as well in the Berkshires, Massachusetts (not Boston). We just pulled the garlic yesterday. First season for garlic and we did surprisingly well! Grateful. It has been a weird season. Going to plant black beans that are saved from last year and spaghetti squash/turnip when the peas are done. Shade cloth is a great idea (or a light sheer curtain/sheet during the hot day sun. Have a wonderful summer! Peace

[@sissieforget]

If you dont like swiss chard you can dry it , powder it, and use it to add to other things. I use the powder to add to banana bread, soups and stews for a nutrition boost. I do the same thing with any brocoli that bolts.

[@The_IndoorGardener]

What a great idea! Thank you so much I will definitely give that a try!

[@KristinM2288]

So happy I found your channel. I live in the states in zone 5b and also have a hydroponic system. It’s not easy to find someone making videos about both of those things!

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Thanks so much Kristin, for me it is all part of micro homesteading but not sure the KZbin algorithm agrees! I really think growing food inside and outside are key to being more self-sufficient as it is the gateway to growing food year round! Thanks for the encouragement!

[@JennLeast]

Love this! Fellow KZbinr from Ontario and your content is awesome. Can't wait to watch more...

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Whoot!!!! Awesomesauce, love connecting with other local Cannucks! Thanks for hanging out, if you have any other video ideas I'd love to hear them.

[@lareinademaz]

Oh no, I just watched this video as first introduction to you. I just moved into an undetermined-yet whether 5a or 5b, PER the official sites so try to just Google or KZbin for "5", figure good enough? I totally appreciate your approach to actually showing & saying specific types, vs all the other gardening people I watch with generic info or long camera shots that doesn't show anything. And the reason for the "oh no" is because in this video I already liked you and felt like I was in my friend's garden like I was yesterday and just saw your "whoot" and "awesome sauce" reply and thought I was the only one that said those anymore 😆😆

[@lareinademaz]

Oh, and stateside in Iowa. One of the minority from this region that has actually gone up into Canada & not just border-waters fishing or for work 😜

[@combshomestead2328]

Good information! Thanks for the video!

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Glad it was helpful!

[@CariMachet]

Thank you 😊 amazing information

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Thank you Cari! I’m happy it was helpful!

[@bridgette5035]

Basil sitting 😂❤

[@The_IndoorGardener]

LOL!

[@angelaburrell-lewis2955]

Thanks for sharing your garden tips with me. I am in Brampton so I can trial some of your planting plans. Much appreciated.

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Yay another Canuck!!! So glad you found it helpful

[@CastroMKE]

Lucky basil 😅

[@shaynastoffel3464]

You and I have similar tastes. A bunch of the seeds you had shown on your video are the same exact ones I got from baker creek!

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Awesome! Baker Creek has the best seeds! What are your faves this year?

[@gibsongirl6816]

Thank you very much for the video! I only have a 16x16 area because I rent and try to grow as much as I can. I started a baby sprouting broccoli /cut and come again type two weeks ago and will grow it in containers as well as carrots and snap peas hoping for more harvest!! No one thinks about fall gardens especially in our zone.

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Is this your first time growing the baby sprouting broccoli? I haven’t tried that before. Small but mighty! Grow what you can where you can and learn as much as you can! So happy you found the video helpful

[@gibsongirl6816]

@@The_IndoorGardener it is my first time. Finger's crossed! Thanks again!!

[@amandawiseman3345]

Great video, love the thumbnail lol

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Thanks!!! Glad it was helpful. I’m planning an August one too 😬

[@brandyashton9765]

Thanks for the info! Sadly I just found this today (mid-August) and I’m in zone 5a. I’m going to try anyway. I love the idea of the wood on top of the carrots.

[@The_IndoorGardener]

I made another video on what to plant in August as well. But as long as you have enough seeds I always think it’s worth a try!

[@danarzechula3769]

Frost cloth is very helpful

[@staceyt1119]

Hi, I’m in Fort Erie by the Falls, is that still 5 b or 5...thanks for this video!

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Seem like Fort Erie is closer to 6b. But don’t focus too much on it, hardiness zones are just guides and averages at best. All they really tell you is the average coldest temp.

[@LordgivemetheStrength]

It's August 1st and I'm wondering what I can plant tomorrow here in Nova Scotia. I have carrot and beet seeds and possibly potatoes. Is it too late to plant?

[@The_IndoorGardener]

I would think it is too late for potatoes, but carrots should be fine! I made a guide that walks you through calculating the usable days left until your first first which would give you more info on being able to decide it there is still time! ourlittlesuburbanfarmhouse.ck.page/zone5fallplantingguide Hope it helps

[@magdalenacostea7838]

I saw a mouse in the closed garden. Do you have any advice for me of how to get rid of mice?

[@Noah-rr7vp]

Cat

[@robynboughton7521]

I went looking for garden fabric and they looked at me funny qnd said you know its the end of growing season.... um what?

[@The_IndoorGardener]

Yeah….they put things out for the start of the season even if its not the best time for them and then they move on. I saw some on Amazon, that might be your best bet. I’m still starting seedlings.

[@magdalenacostea7838]

What about red beets?

[@danarzechula3769]

Detroit mmmm
