How to Start A Mid-Summer Container Garden or Plant Seeds for Cucumbers, Squash & Tomatoes: All the Steps!
How to Start A Mid-Summer Container Garden or Plant Seeds
for Cucumbers, Squash & Tomatoes: All the Steps!
Cucumber, squash and zucchini plants can be ready it as little as 45 days. It most areas we can replant them in the middle of July and enjoy harvesting them toward the end of summer and early fall.
The benefit to doing this is, obviously, more production from your garden but these mid-summer plants tend to miss the insects, diseases and heat that are typically taking these plants from you garden come mid-season.
Don't spend time trying to save a plant that is beat up and done... replant. This is how you can get them started by seeds or transplants as shown in the videos. I also start seeds in pint containers and get some transplant growing as backup plants. If you have a good 60 days before frost, you can start many warm-weather crops in you garden in the middle of the summer season.
