Continuing our series of monthly articles on tips related to the season and its timing, today we will see what to sow and what to plant in the garden in July.
In July, in the northern hemisphere, and especially in Spain, from where we write, you can enjoy a warm and sunny climate in most areas, which offers excellent conditions for orchard cultivation.
For their part, in the southern hemisphere they begin with the coldest period of the year, since winter has just begun and with this beginning comes the coldest period, that is to say the 6 or first 8 weeks of winter.
Next, we’ll look at some cropping options suitable for this time of year in each of the regions our readers come from. As always, we recommend keeping an eye out for our planting schedule.
