June Garden Chores

June garden chores include:

Weed and water daily.

Keep looking for pests and smash them.

Get stuff ready for fall planting in September including getting your beds ready.

Order your fall seeds now.

Harvest the garlic now that you planted in September.

June garden chores include harvesting whatever is still alive out in the 100° plus heat that you have not pulled up yet. In normal parts of the country, just weed and water with some fertilizer once a month.

Watering is vital for any plants that are still growing and producing. I cannot say it enough. Do not wait for it to rain. Water your plants.

They also include deadheading the zinnias, roses and other perennial flowers you may have in your yard.

Other than the above, there is not much else to do in the garden in Texas. It gets too hot during the summer. It is now time to look forward to fall.
