I like the seeding the drip line trick. Good way to keep the seeds moist of course, but hadn't considered the cooling effect. No experience gardening in a hot climate here 😂 So much of this was great info ❤
I direct seed my fall crops into garden. They work well for me. I have always done it because how my family done it growing up. Louisiana
Make it happen. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Thanks for pushing us to always improve and try new methods.
I direct seeded my carrots in August using an app connected water timer I got from the Home Depot. Just set the timer to go off for 15 minutes about every 2 hours and covered an agribond and it seemed to work pretty good
You are such an inspiration. Thank you.😊
Ugh! It is still 95F in the shade here in Sylacauga, AL, and it had been dry all month—less than 1/4 inch of rain all month. It is still too hot for most cool season seeds to sprout. The good news is cooler temperatures are moving into the area starting next Tuesday (81-82F), and rain too. The rain will cool the soil temperatures. Well, it is round two for planting cabbage and beets. I will also sow seeds for cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, turnips, Pak Choi, Swis Chard, Yellow Heart Winter Choy, Tatsoi, and Komatsuna. October will be planting time for parsnips, radish, and garlic. It will be nice not haveing bare soil to look at. I fight with the temperature issues every year. Last year was worse. We were still getting triple digit tempoertures at this time of year.
Gonna be a lot of work to come out and water at the right times, but it'll be worth it!
Jeff from East Tennessee. Dry! Hot! And more hot!!! Summer garden doing good! Overall it’s much better than the last 2 years!! Now I have used tons and tons of water!! And oceans and oceans of water!! Extreme amounts of water!! You get the idea. Most gardens around here
Burned up and are dead!! It’s been a dry hot summer here. June was really no rain. July was baking hot and dry until end of month. July was around 5 inches of rain. August has had around 2 inches of rain. Dry and hot!!
Fall cabbage and broccoli doing great!! Using some shade cloth. I have not seeded anything else yet in this heat!! Maybe this weekend. Major size fall garden is coming. After baking all summer, I am ready, ready, ready for those cool days!! Thanks!!
