Show July 17 2003 The Times-lndepende- nt EXTRJU Summer planting successful through Most gardeners planted their and vegetables in mid to now their crops are up and growing For those who havent yet planted, however, there are summer crops that and can be put in as late as before the still he ready to harvest - late-spnn- g, mid-Jul- y first killing freeze, said Jerry Goodspeed, Utah State University Extension horticulturist. For gardeners who like to procrastinate, this is exciting news," he said. Bare garden spots can be claimed as intentional. However, the bad news is that gardeners should hurry since time is running out It is probably too late for watermelon, and cantaloupe artichokes, said Goodspeed. However, there are a number of vegetables that only require 60 to 90 days to harvest Some of them include kohlrabi, beets, cucumbers, peas, Swiss chard, radishes, spinach, turnips and carrots. Carrots are difficult to germinate and must be babied until they are two to three weeks along. A summer planting of carrots ensures that enough can be left in the ground to harvest in January and February when they are the sweetest. Summer squash, such as zucchini, can also be started now, although Im not sure why a person would plant zucchini unless it is for revenge on a neighbor, said Goodspeed.

Pine needles, leaves and grass clippings can also be used to protect the seeds, but they sometimes have mixed results. Once seedlings emerge, they need extra care and water until they become established, he noted. Then they can be watered with the rest of the garden. Apply a nitrogen fertilizer to help the young plants get up and growing. Place it a minimum of two inches from the plants. For true procrastinators, this summer planting can be put off another week, Goodspeed concluded. However, it should be done before the middle of the month. If it gets much later than that, gardeners will have the chance to put it off even further and wait until next spring.

The sun tends to dry the newly emerging seedlings before they can get established. However, once they are up about two inches, they will usually be fine. One way to reduce drying is to cover the seeds with potting soil, then place shredded paper, burlap or some other light material over the top, he said. This reduces exposure to the sun and the likelihood of drying out. When the seeds germinate and start to grow, remove the shredded material. RIDE YOUR HORSE or MTN BIKE TO PUBLIC LAND.
