What to grow in summer in Georgia?
Plant your choices of the following warm-season or “frost-tender” crops: beans (snap, pole, and lima), cantaloupe, sweet corn, cucumbers, eggplant, okra, field peas, peppers, squash, tomatoes, and watermelon. In June, legumes such as soybeans, southern peas, and Partridge pea are other good legumes to consider. Soybeans are a great summer cover crop and they are also a legume, so they add nitrogen to the soil.
