It is possible to either buy sprouts already started or start them from seeds. These sprouts can all be harvested at once. Broccoli is another crop that you should plant in July. There are three types of broccoli: calabrese (baby), and early purple. These vegetables will all thrive in mid-summer, no matter if you plant them from seeds or prestarted plants. They will also produce a harvest in autumn.
Vegetables like spinach and tomatoes are still in season, so there's no reason to put off planting vegetables.

These crops can be harvested later in the summer, and even into the autumn and winter. You can still harvest these crops if you plant them in July.

Cauliflower is another crop you can plant in July. But, it's best to place them in the shade in the hottest hours of the day. You should plant the seeds every one-and-a-half feet. Once they sprout, you will need to keep them moist. Although this is a good time to plant many plants, it's also a colder month than other months. Therefore, you should be careful about what you plant.
While there are a few crops to plant in July, they all should be cold-weather-tolerant. If your climate is too cold, consider planting vegetables in July.

Broccoli can be used if you grow cold-weather-loving plants.
You can grow multiple vegetables in the summer. Beets make an excellent choice for summer gardening, because they can be harvested at different stages during the year. You can plant your vegetables earlier by choosing varieties that are resistant to downy mold. This will allow your plants to be more productive and enable you to get more produce in the fall. You can also plant okra, carrots, or beets in July.
