The following aspects needed to be paid attention to when planting in summer: 1. ** Species selection **: Give priority to heat-resistant, fast-maturing, and resistant varieties. For example, cucumbers, Asparagus, loofah, eggplant, tomatoes, and other vegetables were more suitable to be planted in summer. 2. ** Sowing and transplanting timing **: Sowing and transplanting should be carried out on consecutive sunny days. Because there was a lot of rain in summer, the rain might cause the seeds to be pressed into the soil and difficult to germinate, or they would rot in a high temperature and humidity environment. 3. ** Seed treatment **: For seeds that are difficult to germinate, such as water convolvulus, tree fungus, and amaranth, it is best to soak them before sowing. It can be soaked in clean water at room temperature for 24 - 48 hours to allow it to absorb water fully. Before sowing, it can be taken out to dry the surface moisture. If possible, germinating techniques could also be used. 4. ** Planting method **: For vegetables that are easily affected by waterlogging, such as bean vegetables, when planting melons, beans, and other vegetables on plots with poor drainage conditions, it is best to use the slightly raised high ridge planting method. The ridge height is about 10 cm, the ridge width is about 50 cm, and two rows are planted on each ridge. 5. ** Watering management **: Pay attention to the water requirement of the plants. Don't water the vegetables when they are wilted. The temperature in summer was high and the light was strong. If the tender leaves at the top of the vegetables were slightly wilted, it might not be a real lack of water. Overwatering would weaken the plant's resistance to disease. During a drought, they had to water the soil almost every day. However, they had to avoid the high temperature at noon. It was better to water the soil in the evening. This way, the soil would not harden and the soil moisture would increase. 6. 7. Pest Control: The temperature in summer is high and there is a lot of rain. All kinds of pests and diseases are easy to breed. You need to pay attention to prevention and control. 8. ** Shady and moist (for leafy vegetables)**: After sowing leafy vegetables, if the soil is dry or to reduce the direct sunlight on the ground, a layer of shade net, straw curtain, gunny sack, etc. can be covered before seedling emergence. It can be used for ventilation and shade to reduce water vapor. After more than half of the seeds had sprouted, he removed the mulch. The novel "Small Business" is equally exciting.
