Tasks

Monthly tasks

Monitor for pests and diseases, which thrive in warm, humid conditions. Ensure good air circulation around plants. Fertilize regularly, especially for heavy feeders, as nutrients can leach quickly with high rainfall. Provide shade for sensitive crops during the hottest part of the day if signs of stress appear. Prune indeterminate plants like tomatoes to manage growth and improve air flow. Prepare for potential tropical weather disturbances common in August.
