What vegetables are suitable for planting in July and August in the south?

The temperature in the south is high in August and water evaporates quickly. Most vegetables prefer a humid environment and need to be watered in time. When it rains continuously during the rainy season, be sure to drain the water from the land in time to avoid water accumulation.

There are still many vegetables that can be grown in the south in August, such as water spinach, amaranth, wood ear vegetable, celery, tomatoes, eggplant, okra, peppers, cabbage, ice vegetable, beans, etc.

1. Beans

Green beans prefer high temperature climate, so they are very suitable for planting in the south in August. The yield of green beans is very considerable. When planting, it is best to choose varieties with strong resistance and high yield.

2. Autumn Radish

As the saying goes, eat radishes in winter and ginger in summer. The demand for radishes is very large every year. There are many varieties of radishes. In the south, autumn radishes are generally planted in August.

3. Autumn cucumber

Cucumbers can adapt to hot and humid environments. The autumn cucumbers planted in August in the south have a sweeter and crisper taste. However, when the weather is hot, high temperature and high humidity, it is easy to cause frequent diseases and insect pests. Pay attention to ventilation and air permeability of the environment to avoid problems such as water accumulation.

4. Coriander

Coriander grows fast and can usually be harvested in less than two months. It is suitable for planting in August. Because the seed coat of coriander is too thick, the seeds need to be separated before planting so that they can germinate faster.

5. Water spinach

The temperature in August in the south is still relatively suitable for growing water spinach. It has good heat resistance and strong vitality. It can survive by cuttings and can be harvested many times. However, it is necessary to do a good job of germination when planting to increase the germination rate of seeds.
