  1. Leek

Leeks are suitable for growing in summer. It is necessary to do a good job of sprouting seeds in summer. The temperature is too high in summer, the soil moisture is high, leek seeds are easy to rot, and the germination speed of seeds after sprouting is fast and the seedling raising time is saved. Leek can be planted for many years in a row, belonging to a wide range of adaptability vegetables, with a certain degree of cold tolerance and high temperature tolerance.

 II. Melons and vegetables

  1. Cucumber

Cucumbers are heat-resistant and can usually be planted in May and June in summer. Cucumber can be planted directly in summer, but also by seedling transplanting, of course, the best is to use hole plate rapid seedling raising. Because of the high temperature in summer, it is easy to cause the lack of water. When planting, the plants should be watered in time to keep the soil moist.

  1. Bitter gourd

Balsam gourd is a kind of vegetable with a long growth cycle, which is usually planted in early summer and vigorous in summer. Basically, it can adapt from 10 to 35 ℃, but the suitable temperature for seed germination is about 30-35 ℃. After planting, it can provide plants with mineral-rich river or lake water, soak all the soil, and create a humid growth environment for balsam gourd. When providing water for balsam gourd, attention should also be paid to watering water, and it is best to water the plant only when the soil is dry.

  1. Loofah

Luffa is a very heat-resistant vegetable, the higher the temperature, the faster the growth, summer luffa to choose heat-resistant, precocious, Fengdeng species. Summer luffa is usually planted in May and June, and can be supplied to the market in July and October. This time can be selected according to the market situation, it should be noted that because of the summer sun is large, need to choose more heat-resistant loofah. Although the high temperature and humidity environment in summer is beneficial to the growth and development of luffa, it is also a period of high incidence of diseases and insect pests, so we should pay attention to the prevention of diseases and insect pests.

  1. Winter melon

Winter melon is a more heat-resistant crop, especially resistant to hot weather, so it can also be planted in summer. The suitable temperature of winter melon in the growth process is between 25 and 30 degrees, and the temperature of seed germination is 28-30 degrees. Because the leaves of winter melon are relatively large, so the water loss is relatively fast, a lot of water is needed in the growth process. Attention should be paid to watering frequently in summer.

Summer high temperature and rain, cool summer intolerable, this time to grow chili peppers, but also to do a good job of management measures. When growing chili pepper, the temperature is between 23 ℃ and 30 ℃, the seedling needs a higher temperature during the growth period, the temperature is below 15 ℃, the seed will not be able to bud, and even if it sprouts, its growth rate is very slow. Pepper diseases and insect pests are more and more serious in summer. Strengthening the field management of pepper and preventing diseases and insect pests is the basic guarantee to ensure high quality pepper.

 

  1. Tomatoes

Early maturing varieties with disease resistance, heat resistance and cold tolerance should be selected when sowing tomato in summer. Because high temperature tomatoes are easy to die and prone to diseases and insect pests, and this is the fruit setting period of tomatoes, field management is very important, in which watering, fertilizer and other processes need to master skills.

  1. Okra
